Hey @melvincarvalho, im using https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/master/12.md

where r stands for reference

| Decentralized Commenting System: clients can comment on arbitrary web pages, and easily search for other comments, by using a r ("reference", in this case an URL) tag and value.

I didnt know about NIP98.. hmm, need to sort this out and come to an agreement when to use u and when is r.

nostr.ee is also using r for url.

That's fine! I personally prefer "u" for URL/URI as I find it more intuitive

r works too for reference, rel and rev a used alot on the web, and R in URI is also resource

I think it doesnt make a huge amount of difference in the end. I think in future URIs/URLs will become important references in nostr as they tie much of the web/internet together. I guess it will evolve over time!
