This should be a slow ball pitch.  Unfortunately, I haven't stumbled across a reasonable answer yet.

On occasion, I put long URL's into comments/docstrings simply to document where I found specific information.  However, to be a good disciple of PEP8, anything which can't fit within 72 characters needs to be split across multiple lines.  Since a number of you seem to be prolific Python coders, what opinion do you have about splitting URL's in comments/docstrings?

Thanks!
