Hi Viliam,

Koha stores repeated fields with a | as separator in the database. I
think for the notes fields the worst you will see is those | in the
display. But I am not sure there will be a real benefit over just
entering the text into one field directly.

For the URL I think this will most likely create issues and result in
broken links as Koha doesn't officially support repeated URL subfields
and will not create the links correctly.

Hope this helps,

Katrin
