Ditto he.wikipedia. Maybe I misunderstood the question. I was about to post a link to <http://idn.icann.org>, but that Wiki now also uses "URI-fied" IRIs, not "raw" IRIs. It is tricky to find any document format permitting "raw" IRIs in links. And "raw" UTF-8 IRIs are boring, popular browsers get this right - "raw" IRIs in legacy charsets are more interesting. Frank
