ISSUE-178: Don't include colon in examples of URI scheme names

uri-scheme-notation

Don't include colon in examples of URI scheme names

State:
CLOSED
Product:
HTML 5 spec
Raised by:
Julian Reschke
Opened on:
2011-09-25
Description:
RFC 3986 specifies a ":" character as a delimiter, and everything before it in the URI is a scheme name. So it is incorrect to point to eg. 'http:' scheme because it literally leads to URI like "http:://smth.org/".
