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.
"It didn't work" isn't helpful. What was the exact command used and the output.
Read FAQ #3 and use that cmd
Please use the Code button for exiftool output

Please include your OS/Exiftool version/filetype

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