Mar 25, 2023 at 21:27 comment added PatrickR Taras's argument shows more generally (1) WH implies US (unique sequential limits), (2) US + first-countable imply Hausdorff. Also see topology.pi-base.org/properties/P000099 for example.

Aug 24, 2017 at 16:57 comment added Taras Banakh @AlexanderKörschgen To prove that a first-countable WH-space is Hausdorff, assume that two distinct points $x,y$ cannot be separated by open neighborhoods and choose decreasing countable neighborhood bases $(U_n)_{n\in N}$ and $(V_n)_{n\in N}$ at $x,y$, respectively. For every $n\in N$ choose a point $x_n\in U_n\cap V_n\setminus\{x,y\}$. Then the sequence $(x_n)_{n\in N}$ converges to $x$ and $y$ simultaneoulsy. Since the set $K=\{x\}\cup\{x_n\}_{n\in N}$ is a continuous image of the compact Hausdorff space $\{0\}\cup\{2^{-n}:n\in N\}$, it is closed in the WH-space, a contradition.
Aug 24, 2017 at 16:38 comment added Alexander Körschgen @TarasBanakh Unfortunately, I don't know the answer for finite groups. If $G$ is finite, any orbit subspace of $X$ is discrete, but this does not really help to separate two points of the orbit.
Aug 24, 2017 at 16:36 comment added Alexander Körschgen @TarasBanakh why does WH + first-countable imply Hausdorff? I wasn't able to find this statement, maybe you're confusing this with the fact that every first-countable space is compactly generated (see Strickland's notes, for example).
Aug 23, 2017 at 10:21 comment added Taras Banakh It seems that a weakly Haudorff first-countable space is Hausdorff, so the answer is affirmative for first-countable spaces $X$. By the way, what is the answer for finite acting group $G$?

Jan 5, 2017 at 0:08 comment added Alexander Körschgen @GabrielC.Drummond-Cole: Thanks, I had not realized that the weak Hausdorff property on $X$ is sufficient to have Hausdorff orbits until now. I agree that this makes a potential example even less likely to be found.
Dec 26, 2016 at 16:38 comment added Gabriel C. Drummond-Cole One reason it may be hard to think of an example by hand is because you assume the quotient is Hausdorff, and then compactness of $G$ implies that each orbit subspace must be Hausdorff. With a Hausdorff "base" and Hausdorff "fibers," non-Hausdorffness in the "total space" has to come from something weird.
Dec 26, 2016 at 3:16 comment added YCor $X$ weakly Hausdorff: all images of compact Hausdorff spaces in $X$ are closed (implies $T_1$: points are closed). Compactly generated: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compactly_generated_space
