Wildcard in URL

[hnhn2020]

Is there such a thing as a wild card symbol in a URL?

So for instance, if I wanted to go here:
"www.amazon.com/books/mybooks/grinch.htm"

could I have a URL with a wildcard, so it would read something like "www.amazon.con/%grinch.htm"

Well, put it this way you cannot have spaces or foreign accented characters within a URL without encoding them.

...Only alpha-numerics [0-9a-zA-Z], the special characters "$-_.+!*'()," [not including the quotes - ed], and reserved characters used for their reserved purposes may be used un-encoded within a URL."

For example a space in a filename would be rendered: %20
