- URLs must begin with a supported URI scheme.
http:// and https:// will be supported by all browsers; however, ftp://, gopher://, irc://, ircs://, mailto: and news: may require a plug-in or an external application and should normally be avoided. IPv6 host-names are currently not supported.
- If URLs in citation template parameters contain certain characters, then they will not display and link correctly. Those characters need to be percent-encoded. For example, a space must be replaced by
%20. To encode the URL, replace the following characters with:
| sp |
" |
' |
< |
> |
[ |
] |
{ |
| |
}
|
| %20 |
%22 |
%27 |
%3c |
%3e |
%5b |
%5d |
%7b |
%7c |
%7d
|
- Single apostrophes do not need to be encoded; however, unencoded multiples will be parsed as italic or bold markup. Single curly closing braces also do not need to be encoded; however, an unencoded pair will be parsed as the double closing braces for the template transclusion.
