           Summary: Add irc:// support to URL datatype
           Product: Wikimedia
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Wikidata

The URL datatype needs support for IRC adress + channel so we can create this
property:

Discussion so far:

(Taken from Wikidata Project chat)

Does anybody else have an opinion about what the datatype for IRC channels
should be? Can we save the whole address or does the channel have to be
separate? Will the URL datatype even take channels? See:

IMHO it should be URL. If that currently doesn't take irc:// then can you
please open a bug so we can add it? --Lydia Pintscher (WMDE) (talk) 18:34, 3

A channel is uniquely specified by its server address and name. It's a URL
albeit not an http one.--Jasper Deng (talk) 18:58, 3 November 2014 (UTC)
