I’m asking because I think about referencing about 3000 MusicBrainz Bruce Springsteen event pages (which I already added to MB) to a Springsteen related Wiki (BruceBase) and the maintainer is worried about changes in the underlying URL.
The URL is not supposed to change. Furthermore even if for some reason unknown yet let’s say the protocol will change (let’s assume https no longer exists and the world uses something else) the URL is still a valid identifier (a URI) and you can easily extract the identifying part from it. Basically what the MB URIs represent as an identifier is the provider of the IDs (MusicBrainz, identified by https://musicbrainz.org), the entity type (e.g. event) and the UUID of this entity (e.g. 6d51a5ad-ec86-4bbb-8a66-d6a7eac55bfb). So even if technical details of the URL changes it could still be rewritten.
If the maintainer of this site is too concerned about it they could also choose to save the short form of {type}:{mbid}, e.g. event:6d51a5ad-ec86-4bbb-8a66-d6a7eac55bfb.
