If you you believe that the (info "(org) Adding Hyperlink Types") 
section should be expanded then a complete example is necessary, some 
ideas may be picked from

https://orgmode.org/worg/org-faq.html#mailto-links
https://orgmode.org/worg/org-faq.html#mid-url-handler

While the manual section and the `org-link-parameters' docstring as the 
reference may be cross-linked, some note on `browse-url' still may be 
helpful in the latter.
