Hey,
No, this is for our site wikiHow (http://wiki.ehow.com)
I'm trying to find out from Google whether filtering out the cookies will be pointless, I know our PHP code doesn't use them and since it's javascript code, I don't see how we would lose anything by not having GA cookies reach our Apache server.
Thanks, Travis

Hey Brion,
Doh! It does look like the UTM code that Google Analytics uses does cookie anonymous users, will this prevent us from configuring Squid properly? The cookies won't affect the display of the pages loaded, is there a way to ignore a set of cookies that start with __utm in the context of the cache?
- Are you talking about your own mediawiki installation or wikipedia?
- If wikipedia, why is Google analytics even included?
- Wouldn't filtering the cookies make the inclusion of GA pointless?
I know why I personally filter GA out - including third-party JS code in a webpage is a receipe rife for desaster....
Best wishes,
Tels

"In 1988, Jack Thompson ran against Janet Reno for DA of Dade County: Thompson's unique campaign message was that Reno was unfit for the job because, as a closeted lesbian with a drinking problem, she was great candidate for blackmail by the criminal element. Jack never explained why this remained a threat even after he exposed her 'secret'. Reno cruised at the polls."
