I created a template named "~/Templates/hyperlink.desktop". The contents are just a blank launcher:
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Link to something
Type=Link
URL=
Icon=gnome-fs-bookmark
I take the long route & create the launcher from scratch like this when a site won't cooperate. If I want to edit the filename, I have to do it in GNOME Terminal, because Nautilus shows & allows editing only of what's on the "Name=" line.
