The wiki is an internal one.

As I read my post and your answer I recognized that Thunderbird
formatted my examples "sip:01234 foo bar" to clickable links. As I
clicked these links a dialog opened so that I could choose with which
program I wanted to open that link. I made an example to myself which
should work, but as I clicked on my own example ekiga opened but did not
recognize the url.

I think, this is the point. Probably one has to passing certain
parameters to ekiga to open an url. Trying to open ekiga via console and
passing urls or numbers doesn't work.
