There are common, well-known tracking parameters that Google uses such as the ones starting with "utm_"
most of the time sharing utm links isn't helpful to the origin as if you copy a link from your email it'll have medium=email, but actually should now be medium=direct
Anything is better than nothing. Besides, it's still useful because you can see where the original link was copied from, and you still have the referrer header
