[Wikidata-bugs] [Maniphest] T280174: + is replaced by %2B in external identifiers

  @Shisma: Thank you for reporting this! In my opinion, this is not a bug. I 
have tried to explain why I think so in my previous comment. The consequences 
of this would be that you enter the external ID in the example as "Newa Folk 
Music". The "property examples" in the Property 
(https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P9173 in this case) would have to be 
changed accordingly.
  
  Does my explanation make sense to you (and anyone reading)? If so, we will 
try to give a better explanation of this in the documentation.

  As far as I can see, external IDs are basically Strings in Wikidata. All 
characters are allowed, nothing is encoded. This is how we probably should 
treat actual IDs.
  
  The example given struggles with its encoding:
  
  "https://rateyourmusic.com/genre/Newa+Folk+Music; is an URL. In URLs, the "+" 
is encoding " ". So the decoded ID in the URL would actually be "Newa Folk 
Music". If you enter "Newa Folk Music" as ID in Wikidata, everything should be 
fine. However, if you enter "Newa+Folk+Music" as the ID in Wikidata, the "+" 
will be treated as actual plus symbols. So when Wikidata creates a URL for it, 
it is encoding the "+" symbols to "%2B".

  Probably such a thing should also bypass % symbols in identifiers. If I try 
to set identifier **Trap [EDM]** (Q47781397 
) as **Trap%20%5BEDM%D**, it converts 
it to **Trap%2520%255BEDM%255D**, where each % changes to %25. I supose that it 
should not work it like this.
