Over the last week i have noticed that some pages will not load when i go to Wikipedia. When navigating to the page all that shows up is an empty tab and the tile (Untitled). If the same link is loaded in Internet Explorer the page loads fine. If the permanent link to the wiki page is used the page will show up fine. Example links
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Big_O
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The_Big_O&oldid=69081173

This has happened with other resources on Wikipedia.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Navigate to : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Big_O
2.Tada! Bug.

Actual Results:  
Tab shows up empty and the title is "(Untitled)".

Expected Results:  
The page related to the resource located at the link would show up.

No errors show up is the error console and this dose not cause the browser to crash.
