Translations:Manual:Edit token/21/en

The default salt is the empty string; most actions use this default value. As a result, an edit token string received from a server to perform an initial action on a page can also be used to perform additional actions on other pages. However, since an edit token is stored in the PHP session, it can be used only as long as the session is kept in the server and the client has the corresponding session token cookie (e.g., the enwiki_session cookie).
