Often you will want to reference a resource that you found on the Internet, but no other rule in the AGLC4 appears to be useful. You can use AGLC4 rule 7.15 for Internet resources when no other rule is applicable.
Every website can be different, and not all websites will fit neatly into the model examples provided in AGLC4 rule 7.15.
