No, the encoding in the URL is correct. The correct procedure for escaping
non-ASCII characters in a URL is to first encode the character in UTF-8,
then represent each octet of the UTF-8 sequence in hexadecimal as %HH.

The important question is, does the link actually work? If it doesn't work,
which browser are you using?
