Unfortunately it doesn't really do that. After a discussion with the
developer I found out it tests whether a server in central Europe
has a link to the UK URLs not if the actual link is current. I was
coming across far too many time consuming false-positives for it to
be useful. <br>
<br>
Anyone know if there's a way to at least use a UK based server or to
conveniently ping multiple websites directly?<br>

<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"
moz-do-not-send="true">www.mypub.com</a> rather than <a
href="http://www.mypub.com" moz-do-not-send="true">
http://www.mypub.com</a> or <a
href="https://www.mypub.com" moz-do-not-send="true">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"
moz-do-not-send="true">
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"
moz-do-not-send="true">
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>
