Branded TLDs like ".google" probably need a section (along with their own page include controversies). ICANN has a page on their wiki, but it's very pro-brand TLDs:

It'd be a good starting source though. I'll try to work on this some time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sumdog ( talk • contribs) 22:27, 19 July 2016 (UTC)
may anyone include the tld ".cx" for "christmas islands"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.183.76.244 ( talk) 20:56, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
Domain suffix redirects to this page but the term is nowhere to be found in the article. Is Domain suffix a synonym for TLD? I believe Domain suffix has at least one other meaning -- Kvng ( talk) 21:56, 11 September 2009 (UTC)
Owing to the decision at ICANN yesterday, there will soon be need for a new section here about TLDs written in non-latin alphabets. No doubt there will be quite some of these; already last year ICANN gave up its policy that there must be only a small, restricted list of non-national top domains. So in ten years we may likely have lots of top domains relatiing to different cities, churches, business sectors and interests. Would be interesting to hear what the first new top domains will be, and how it will affect the structure of the web. For one thing, won't this create new demands on the capacity of web browsers, web servers and keyboards, if you're native to one language but want to be able to visit or direct at web addresses written in another script, without necessarily copy-pasting the URL? / Strausszek ( talk) 02:41, 31 October 2009 (UTC)

as it is:
"ICANN implemented a set of IDN top-level domains that are translations of the name example.test into each language's script."
as it should be (1): "(...) that are transliterations of the name example.test into each language's script."
as it should be (2): "(...) that are translations of the name example.test into each language." -- Elvenmuse ( talk) 04:39, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
There's currently some controversy over whether top-level domains should be allowed in DNS as "bare words", that is, with no subdomain. With ICANN considering a huge new list of TLDs, many of which are company names, there will soon be corporate TLDs. Names from "APPLE" through "WALMART" are on the list. Whether putting "WALMART" into a browser gets WalMart's TLD or a search is currently being discussed by browser developers. -- John Nagle ( talk) 22:14, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

There seems to be widespread confusion over what a TLD is. Many people are using TLD to refer to a registered domain, before prefixes such as www. For example according to this Google Analytics documenation example-petstore.com and my-example-blog.com are examples of TLDs. -- 83.236.128.138 ( talk) 12:14, 6 September 2012 (UTC)

The eleven Evaluative Internationalized Domains are no longer in the IANA Root Zone database at [ [1]] or on the IANA active TLD list at [ [2]] While I don't see an IANA announcement, it looks as though these domains have been terminated. The section of this wiki addressing those domains could either be deleted or moved to a historical section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 23.25.252.245 ( talk) 16:11, 11 December 2013 (UTC)
It seems that commercial search engines do not archive material on non-.com sites. I don't know why this is.
In any case, the website trees.xyz is not about general interest in trees, but rather has prominently displayed that the domain trees.xyz may be for sale or lease. This is incorrect according to Top-level Domain standards as .com stands for commercial domains and I am seeking to have this fixed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mmkstarr ( talk • contribs) 01:09, 30 July 2014 (UTC)
On 13 June 2012 ICANN has revealed nearly 2,000 applications for new top-level domains, which are expected to go live throughout 2013 after thorough examination.
At the very least, this needs to be updated to revise the future tense, and I suggest reclassifying it from "Proposed" to something more timely and appropriate.

Article currently states: "BT hubs use the top-level pseudo-domain home for local DNS resolution of routers, modems and gateways." under Pseudo-domains. I think hub is supposed to refer to router, and I'm fairly sure that this isn't unique to BT devices. Should this be changed?

How to write a set of TLDs (top-level domains)? -- Green C 01:43, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
In prose and section headers when discussing a set of TLDs.
Option 1 (no dot, no comma):
Option 2 (no dot, comma):
Option 3 (dot, no comma):
Option 4 (dot, comma):
Extra credit: when .vi is the end of the sentence - include a full stop or not: .vi. -- Green C 01:43, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
http://ai./ is listed in examples of dotless domains. It is no longer a public site. My latest revision changed the description to note this, should we remove it entirely? VioletWTF ( talk) 23:45, 2 February 2023 (UTC)
added ICANN proposal and request for feedback to the text. Hope that's ok. Please correct and maybe put to "proposed domains" if appropriate. Maybe this should be moved or copied to Proposed top-level domain? -- Schusch ( talk) 12:17, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
