says

    <reference anchor="W3C" target="https://www.w3.org/">
        <front>
            <title>World Wide Web Consortium (W3C)</title>
            <author/>
        </front>
    </reference>

i try

    <reference anchor="Clos" target="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clos_network/">
      <front>
        <title>Clos Network</title>
	<author/>
        </front>
      </reference>

i get

Error: Unable to validate the XML document: foo.xml
 <string>: Line 1552: Element front content does not follow the DTD, expecting (title , author+ , date , area* , workgroup* , keyword* , abstract? , note*), got (title author)
