The link shown in the panel at https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/settings/panel/external/
In some other URLs the same panel is displayed.

If you notice, the link to the profile has a semicolon at the end of the URL, which is redundant.

@Qgil: This is unfortunately somewhat difficult to fix. Since it's a very minor cosmetic detail I don't expect to get around to fixing this any time soon.

Have not seen anyone else expressing surprise or confusion about this detail plus difficult to fix, hence declining.
