The URL standard requires that only the ASCII character set be used. Non-ASCII characters (Chinese for example) will be converted into percent encoding, also known as URL encoding. Chinese characters need to be encoded in URLs to ensure that they can be transmitted and parsed correctly. However, when the URL is pasted and shared, the Chinese characters will become %+numbers, which is almost unreadable.
