The link to < http://iptc.cms.apa.at/site/Photo_Metadata/IPTC_Core_&_Extension/ > (Text of link: IPTC Core and Extension specifications) at the end of the IPTC section in FAQ 10 is broken.  Off hand I couldn't find a replacement link for it, though maybe it's supposed to be < https://iptc.org/standards/photo-metadata/iptc-standard/ >.    The link before it has also changed but appears to be redirected properly at the server end.
* Did you read FAQ #3 and use the command listed there?
* Please use the Code button for exiftool code/output.
 
* Please include your OS, Exiftool version, and type of file you're processing (MP4, JPG, etc).

Thanks.  I've fixed this broken link with your suggested URL.

Interesting side note:  ExifTool was used to generate the metadata for the reference images on this page.
