           Summary: un/folding status of the sidebar is not remembered
                    correctly
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: Vector Skin
        AssignedTo: tpars...@wikimedia.org
        ReportedBy: amir.ahar...@mail.huji.ac.il


The un/folding status of Interaction, Toolbars and Languages in the sidebar is
supposed to be remembered using a cookie. In fact it appears to be random. I
want all of them open, because i use all all the links all the time, but they
fold randomly when i move between articles.

It also makes me think - why a cookie and not a preference? Using a preference
is impossible for anonymous users, but if user who has an account opens it on a
different computer and sees his sidebar not the way he's used to, it's quite
confusing.

While you think about fixing this, think about [[bug 23497]], too - remember
that it's more important to show the links than to hide them.
