- *(Persistent irrelevant comment: I jumped down to the title field and entered that first and then went back up here to enter the actual question.)*
- I tried to vote on an answer and nothing happened. No change to the count, no visible error message.
- After several clicks, I realized that I might not be logged in. I clicked "Sign in" and logged in as normal and then voting worked as expected.
- Unlike some other action buttons (e.g., Delete if you don't have Delete privileges), I think the voting buttons should always be visible - they are a key feature of the system and no special privileges are (and none should be) required to vote. However, if you are not signed in then one of the following should happen if you click a voting button:
- * On-screen notification that you must register/sign in to vote.
- * A dialog box giving the option to either Sign In or Sign Up.

- @ArtOfCode No errors from the actual vote-clicks. But on each page load, in addition to 404 on meta.css and meta.js (which I get whether signed in or not), I see:
- ````

Voting while not signed in
