Part of this bug will be that the urlize function used from django ( https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/ref/templates/builtins/#urlize ) will only act on things prefixed a certain way. An implementation that can find any type of URI will be needed to fullfil the requirement of this issue.

I mentioned in my contact info that my IRC nick is Wraithan on irc://irc.freenode.net as there is a field for IRC nick but not server so I felt I'd add the specific server in my contact me. I found that it prepended http:// resulting in http://irc://irc.freenode.net Contact me should only prepend if a URI doesn't have a protocol component.
