--- Comment #5 from Arthur Richards <[email protected]> ---
Sorry to have been so brief, I had to run as I wrote the response.

'Request desktop site' contains a link to the desktop site with a query string
parameter instructing MobileFrontend to toggle into the desktop view (in this
case,
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Base64&mobileaction=toggle_view_desktop).
When MobileFrontend toggles into desktop view this way and on our particular
setup, the 'stopMobileRedirect' cookie gets set. The user will wind up in the
desktop view, and the cookie will prevent further automatic redirects to the
mobile (.m) version of the site (until the cookie expires [1 month] or the
client clears cookies).

I just tested to see what happens with cookies disabled with Chrome on Android,
and I just wind up getting redirected back to the mobile site.

Wes, when you tapped 'Desktop' did you stay in the mobile view, or did you see
the desktop version of the site (but with en.m.wikipedia.org still in the URL
bar)? What device/Android version are you using? Do you have cookies enabled?
