      It's not wasted simply because of a sub-domain, they're webpages just like anything else.

      Are you going to tell Wikipedia they're doing it wrong?

    I think you shouldn't follow both because url should be short and don't repeat so many times of such kind of things: /, -

    I think first one is the better option. If you make them without any hyphen, it will be best.
