Version: n/a

Additional context, screenshots, screencasts

The bad link was found by a tool I very recently created as part of an new experimental hobby project: https://github.com/MrCull/GitHub-Repo-ReadMe-Dead-Link-Finder I (a human) verified that this link is broken (for me) and have manually logged this Issue (i.e. this Issue has not been created by a bot). If this has been in any way helpful then please consider giving the above Repo a Star.

If you have any feedback on the information provided here, or on the tool itself, then please feel free to share your thoughts and pass on the feedback.

To fix, locate those links in the README.md file and update them to the correct URLs or remove them if no replacement exists. No code changes are needed. The repository has no assignees or open pull requests for this issue, making it a straightforward documentation fix.
