--- Comment #1 from Brad Jorsch <[email protected]> ---
I cannot reproduce this. According to Firebug the cookies are being included in
XHR requests to the API when I visit enwiki pages, including the request to
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?format=json&uselang=en&action=visualeditor&paction=parse&page=Moravian-Silesian_Region
if I enable the VE beta feature and then attempt to edit that page using VE.

Further, I'd expect we'd have had many more bug reports if this were a
widespread problem, since lacking cookies in the API requests would cause the
VE edits to be performed as an IP.

My browser is Iceweasel 32.0 (which is Debian's rebranded version of Firefox
32.0). While it shouldn't matter for this particular case, I have "Accept
third-party cookies" set to "Always".


At any rate, this certainly isn't an API bug since the API has no control over
whether the client sends any cookies. I'm going to tentatively reassign it to
"JavaScript".
