According to this page (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-share-things-firefox-android), "If you're sharing an image or selected text, Firefox will also automatically include a link to that content."

I installed FireFox 53.0 on my Android 5.0.2 and followed the step in the aforementioned page to share selected text from a Wiki page (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desktop_computer)

However only the title and the selected text are shared, the URL of this Wiki page is not included. Is there a setting option somewhere I need to enable to get this feature as advertised?

Thanks
