The last para of (info "(org) External Links") says in part:
#+begin_quote
If spaces must be part of the link (for example in
‘bbdb:R.*Stallman’), or if you need to remove ambiguities about the
end of the link, enclose the link in square or angular brackets.
#+end_quote
To me, this sounds like advice not to drop external links amid normal text.
i.e. put them in brackets instead.
