Does it change the appearance of the first link in the first line of the OP to the desired way? Or are you saying that when you click on the first link it does the desired thing and put the desired URL in the address box heading the Wikipedia page it goes to?

I don't think you are talking about the last link in the last line. And I don't think you are talking about copy-pasting the first-line link to the address bar.

I don't know what's wrong with your browser, PoindexterOglethorpe Oct 4 #2

If I paste the first link in the browser address bar, go to the site, copy the link and paste it to another window... TheBlackAdder Oct 4 #14
