www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXX&feature=related

My question is when the url with feature=g-like is generated?

&feature=g-like is generated when you visit your own liked video feed.

Hover over or copy the URL of any of those videos YouTube says you liked and you'll see &feature=g-like appended to them.
