The URLField needs an http or an https protocol in the URL. If you are
using an svn:// or svn+ssh:// URL, it won't validate (use a plain
CharField or a custom field in that case.)
Also, when you get the error 'Enter a valid URL', it means the URL is
simply invalid. On the other hand, when verify_exists fails to find
the resource at your URL you will get a different message: 'This URL
appears to be a broken link.'
