Hi, I removed it, because it is a redlink and has no article. Otherwise this template becomes really huge since every application implements such a URI.mabdul19:07, 26 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
As hinted in the Links section above in this Talk page, all schemes that had no information written anywhere in Wikipedia about the URI itself (syntax, usage etc) were removed in 2015, includingtel. I personally would like them to be there. There should somewhere on Wikipedia be a list of URI schemes.--BIL (talk)06:47, 5 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I see that at the end ofUniform Resource Identifier there is a link to an official list with 248 entries. Most of the schemes listed as unofficial in our template are listed in this list. What's our definition of an unofficial scheme?--BIL (talk)07:13, 5 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Official / unofficial should be whether it's registered with IANA, I assume that's the list you're talking about. You could also make the distinction between what IANA lists as provisional and what it lists as permanent. Provisional protocols are not really less official, it's just that they may be removed later. --Entlantian (talk)13:49, 30 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
WAIS is a historical scheme and not in use any more. We still list it in the "official" section; however, this isn't very useful to most readers. I'm going to just remove it.
You can view the complete, current list of schemes straight from the source here:[1]
A "historical" section of the template might make sense, and this resource also helps us separate "official" from "unofficial" (permanent vs provisional) in the future.— Precedingunsigned comment added byHornpipe2 (talk •contribs)05:35, 9 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
