Link redirects to wrong page on HTTPService:JSONEncode()

Many web endpoints use JSON, as it is commonly used on the Internet. Visit JSON.org to become more familiar with the format.

JSON.org redirects to the JSON Storage Format Page: [JSON.org](http://robloxdev.com/articles/JSON-Storage-Format) instead of the actual JSON.org page: [JSON.org](http://json.org)

There’s a typo in release note 413, TextLable should be TextLabel.

This also means the link to the TextTruncate documentation is broken. Fixing the spelling error should resolve the issue.

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local localPlayer = Players.LocalPlayer -- from a LocalScript
local mouse = Player:GetMouse()

typo is that mouse = Player; the Player is undefined; should be localPlayer.

On the Tool.RequiresHandle page


This description is backwards. The tool will activate and deactivate without a handle if the property is set to false. The tool will not function without a handle if the property is set to true.

On the page https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/api-reference/class/HttpService, It says:

be sure to enable HTTP Requests in your Game Settings (Home > Game Settings).

To avoid any confusion, consider changing it to this:

(Home > Game Settings > Options)

Even if it’s like very minor confusion, I’d still just change it.

Line 11: local res, canInvite = pcall(SocialService:PromptGameInvite(targetPlayer))
