<div>Hi all,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>First of all, I would like to introduce myself on this email list and to thank you all for your contributions to OSM. Great work!</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>After some time using OSM as a user, I decided to make my first step as a contributor, hence this email and the proposal inside.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Please bear in mind that this is my first attempt to contribute with a proposal and, although I have done my best reading the community conventions and best practices, I am sure I have made some mistakes on the way. Be merciful! :P</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>To the point now.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I am importing a subset of nodes from UK (those tagged with amenity:pub) for a pet project.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>When analysing the data I realised that some of these nodes contain a website: tag that does not contain an appropriate URL schema (http/https).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Ie: <a href="http://www.mypub.com">www.mypub.com</a> rather than <a href="http://www.mypub.com">
http://www.mypub.com</a> or <a href="https://www.mypub.com">https://www.mypub.com</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This goes in contradiction with the <a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:website">
Wiki documentation for website.</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I created a proposal for a one-off, scoped, automated edit for these nodes to find the appropiate scheme for the existing URL and retag the nodes.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I added the proposal to the Automated edits log. You can read it <a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Automated_edits/rodrigodiez/Add_missing_URL_scheme_to_pub_websites_in_UK">
here</a>.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Just wanted to share the proposal with the UK community, gather your feedback, comments and advises on how to proceed from here</div>
<div><br>
</div>

<div>One issue I can think of with pubs and websites is that they need checking to ensure they are still current. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The defacto method most pubs use to communicate with customers is facebook.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>A more general fix of urls missing http(s)://, why only pubs?. is probably a maproulette quest.</div>
