The idea of Master Source and Source Detail is that you can have one
Master Source with many Source Details, attached to many different
people/events/facts.  One particular web page has one particular URL but
you might want to cite different parts of that web page in different
places.  You would have one Master Source for the web page, giving the
URL and the various Source Details would give particulars of what was
relevant to each case.

For example, the website might be FindAGrave but the Source Details
might refer to entry # 12345 Joe Bloggs, entry 45678 Fanny Adams or
entry #13579 Jane Doe.  Three different citations but always the same
URL which does not need to be repeated 3 times.
