==<span id="bad_url">Check |url= value</span>== <section begin=bad_url_help_text />{{help desk}}<span class="error">Check <code style="color:inherit; border:inherit; padding:inherit;">|url=</code> value</span> External links in {{cs1}} and {{cs2}} templates are made from two parts: the ''title'' ({{para|title}}, {{para|chapter}}, etc.) and the ''URL'' ({{para|url}}, {{para|archive-url}}, {{para|chapter-url}}, {{para|lay-summary}}, etc.). The {{para|url}} parameter and other URL parameters must begin with a supported [[URI scheme]]. The URI schemes <code>http://</code>, <code>https://</code> and the protocol relative scheme <code>//</code> are most commonly used; <code>irc://</code>, <code>ircs://</code>, <code>ftp://</code>, <code>news:</code>, <code>mailto:</code> and <code>gopher://</code> are also supported. The URL field is checked to ensure that it contains only Latin characters and does not contain spaces. The URL may be protocol relative (begins with <code>//</code>). If there are no spaces and the URL is not protocol relative, then the scheme must comply with <nowiki>RFC 3986</nowiki>.<ref>{{citation |mode=cs1 |contribution-url=http://tools.ietf.org/html/std66#section-3.1 |contribution=Scheme |title=Uniform Resource Identifier (URI): Generic Syntax |publisher=Internet Engineering Task Force |date=January 2005|rfc=3986}}</ref> Top- and second-level domain names are checked for proper form. Generally, top-level domain names must be two or more letters; second-level domain names must be two or more letters, digits, or hyphens (first and last character must be a letter or digit). Single-letter second-level domains are supported for: :all ccTLDs (the country code is not validated) :the .org TLD :certain letters of the .com TLD (q, x, z) :certain letters of the .net TLD (i, q) Third- and subsequent-level domain names are not checked. The path portion of the URL is not checked. To resolve this error, ensure that {{para|url}} and other URL parameters contain valid URLs. Online tools are available to internationalize URLs that are written in non-Latin scripts: :{{cite web |url=http://mct.verisign-grs.com/ |title=IDN Conversion Tool |website=Verisign}} :{{cite web |url=http://idna-converter.com/ |title=IDNA Conversion tool |website=IDNA-converter.com}} Pages with this error are automatically placed in {{#ifeq: {{FULLPAGENAME}} | Category:Pages with URL errors | Category:Pages with URL errors | [[:Category:Pages with URL errors]]}}.<ref group="lower-alpha" name="categories" /><section end=bad_url_help_text />
