    <thetext>Section 2.1.1 &quot;Resources&quot; states:

A string is a valid MIME type if it matches the media-type rule defined in section 3.7 &quot;Media Types&quot; of RFC 2616.
...
A string is a valid MIME type with no parameters if it matches the media-type rule defined in section 3.7 &quot;Media Types&quot; of RFC 2616

However, RFC 2616 is obsolete and is no longer listed as a normative reference. It should probably be changed to refer to section 3.1.1 &quot;Processing Representation Data&quot; of RFC 7231.</thetext>
