Description
I was looking at the RSE Groups page of the website at https://us-rse.org/resources/organizations/rse-groups/. The Stanford link mentioned here resolves to something, but not actual content. I'm getting a "Site not found" page. Does anyone understand the URL Checker well enough to verify we are catching pages like this?
[!Note]
I was asked to log in with my credentials at Stanford, so others may not even be able to see the page? But if that's the case, what should we do about this specific link?
