When I navigate to Wikipedia on my iPhone I get a search page that somewhat resembles Google. There's a search box in the center and a bunch of languages listed. It's pretty bare and I'd like to view it on my computer but I can't find the page anywhere. On my phone the URL is simply wikipedia.org so that's no help. When I go to that specific URL on my computer I get redirected to wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page. Doesn't anyone know if I can use that page on my computer or is it just for Mobile Safari?

Clear your cookies on your computer and you'll get that main page (the cookies are remembering what language you chose last time you went to Wikipedia.org and redirects you appropriately the next time you visit.)
