Why are you citing strange URLs?
Welcome to Wikipedia! But, why are you citing strange URLs in Wikipedia articles? Three examples that you added today, though you added others earlier, are this one, another one, and yet another one. The URLs are strange because: This is all very puzzling and I hope you can provide some explanation. Biogeographist (talk) 01:06, 16 July 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) The URLs all include a URL parameter for social media analytics, namely fbclid (Facebook click identifier), which is extraneous and a little creepy. URL parameters like these should be removed.
 * 2) If you are trying to cite sources, you should be adding full citations (see Citing sources), not bare URLs (see Bare URLs). If you're too lazy to add full citations, you should add the cleanup template Bare URLs to the top of the article so that other editors will be alerted to convert your bare URLs to full citations for you.
 * 3) At least one of the URLs, namely this one, appears to have no relation at all to the sentence to which you attached it.
