Last sentence of section Unauthorized" states the following: 'semantically means "unauthorised"'. However it should be the following: ' semantically means "unauthenticated"'
Reasoning: The same sentence explains it. means that the user does not have a valid authentication. This means unauthenticated. Unauthorized would be 403. HTTP code naming is just confusing here. See the following Mozilla link, where it uses the same definition https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status#client_error_responses Hans Wurst mit Durst (talk) 07:09, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
