Have  a look at  GET variables on
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/HttpVariables

With that recipe installed you can do a link like

 [[Group.Name?arg1=xxx&arg2=yyy]]

and use on the link target Group.Name

 {$?arg1}  {$?arg2}

which will show the values passed (otherwise nothing).
Note the special syntax for the GET variables.
