TASK DESCRIPTION It would be useful if WDQS URL-escaped parentheses (`()`) in the address it builds from the query (https://query.wikidata.org/#QUERY_GOES_HERE). For example, Twitter sometimes thinks that the parentheses are not part of the link, and so you have to escape them manually (**Workaround:** `xclip -o | sed 's/(/%28/g;s/)/%29/g' | xclip`). This is similar to https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T40265, in that it could be considered a bug in another application (here, Twitter), but as WDQS URLs are already not really readable (nor, I think, intended to be), I hope you’ll still consider mitigating it on the WDQS end. To clarify: entering and running the query SELECT (COUNT(?human) AS ?count) WHERE { ?human wdt:P31 wd:Q5. } should result in the URL > https://query.wikidata.org/#SELECT%20%28COUNT%28%3Fhuman%29%20AS%20%3Fcount%29%0AWHERE%20%7B%20%3Fhuman%20wdt%3AP31%20wd%3AQ5.%20%7D and not > https://query.wikidata.org/#SELECT%20(COUNT(%3Fhuman)%20AS%20%3Fcount)%0AWHERE%20%7B%20%3Fhuman%20wdt%3AP31%20wd%3AQ5.%20%7D .
