What exactly did you google and where was that URL? It's a google URL pointing to the schools wikipedia URL, probably so they can monitor who clicks on external links, or something. The last bit is probably a session ID, it's like using cookies but puts the info on the end of the URL instead of in a separate file. _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list WikiEN-l@lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
