A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
The general information section at the top of the URL page in the API suggests navigating to "http://www.socs.uts.edu.au/MosaicDocs-old/url-primer.html" for more information on how to format urls, however this page appears to no longer exist.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
A working link to more information.
ACTUAL -
A non-working link to more information. (duh)

URL OF FAULTY DOCUMENTATION :
