WolfgangFahl added a comment. @Nikki - your comment is a valid concern which IMHO could be easily solvable by selecting the URL handling. Obviously the discussion is about more choices and avoiding the "URL shortening failed" which is just not acceptable as a message/result in my opinon.

Nikki added a comment. A lot of people seem to be assuming that everyone who wants a short URL wants to provide a public example query for everyone else to look at. I often attempt to use short URLs to copy queries between computers, they're not intended for anyone else to look at, let

WolfgangFahl added a comment. Why not go with "named queries" while at it? The examples Button at https://query.wikidata.org/ currently has 363 such "named queries". If the names would have a namespace structure it would be an ideal way of having two ways to reference a query 1. by

WolfgangFahl added a comment. The worst part is IMHO the message URL-shortening failed / URL-Kürzung fehlgeschlagen - instead it should offer workarounds and alternatives. It's quite strange that his is being discussed for many years given that there is such a big need. TASK DETAIL
