in the case of MediaWiki wikis, I guess http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/** Technical_University_of_Denmarkhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technical%20University%20of%20Denmark should be preferred, but that is besides the point.
Yes, spaces are not escaped. That was intentional, as they are also not escaped when entering the URL in wiki syntax. Should we behave differently?
Thank you for the tests!

It is apparently not possible to enter a URL with spaces and have it automatically escaped, e.g.,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/**Technicalhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TechnicalUniversity of Denmark
should be entered as:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/**Technical%20University%20of%**20Denmarkhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technical%20University%20of%20Denmark
On the other hand http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/**K%C3%B8benhavnhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%C3%B8benhavnworks ok for http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/**K%C3%B8benhavnhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%C3%B8benhavn
Also http://k%C3%B8benhavn.dk http://xn--kbenhavn-54a.dk works.

Hello all,
in preparation of next week's deployment to Wikidata.org, test.wikidata.org http://test.wikidata.org now has the new datatype
URL deployed.
If you have the time, we would appreciate if you tested it and let us know about errors and problems.
The URL datatype should be a big step in allowing to introduce better sourcing and reliability of the content of Wikidata.
Cheers, Denny
