Generate a new resource identifier:

This form is used to generate a new, globally and temporally unique, web resolvable, persistent resource identifier.

One may optionally specify a human readable label in the field provided, which will become part of the generated identifier. Omitting the label will not affect the uniqueness of the generated identifier in any way; however, if included, the label constitutes an inseparable part of the generated identifier and the generated identifier is not equivalent to an otherwise identical identifier without the label.

The label will be separated from the rest of the identifier by distinct punctuation, so it is not necessary to include any such delimiting punctuation at the start of the label input field.

Note that the label, if specified, must be a valid URI fragment. Any characters which are not permitted to occur literally in a URI, specifically any character other than the following unreserved characters

   alphanumeric: a-z A-Z 0-9
   punctuation:  - _ . ! ~ * ' ( ) /

must be escaped accordingly (see section 2.4) of the URI specification.

An error will result if a non-URI-valid label is specified.
