This is the best approach I think if you are building a url "+" is
just
a space, tags I always thought were just single descriptive words
and a
link to the meaning or reference (just my thought)

I think this has come up before. Delicious uses + to add terms to a
search via the 'related tags' links on a page.
eg. http://del.icio.us/eatyourgreens/video+music - links tagged with
the separate tags 'video' and 'music'
So + can indicate a space, but doesn't always. Which means you can't
necessarily relate a tag on Wikipedia, say, to a tag on flickr or
delicious. For real fun with tag spaces, have a look at this URL,
which relates four individual tags (I think) to provide some context
to the search http://www.flickr.com/photos/tags/woolwich/clusters/
london-thames-uk/
I think the answer to the original question is - there is no standard
for encoding spaces in tags, so pick the scheme that works best for
you. %20 or underscores seem pretty unambiguous to me.
