sorry, there is something going on with caching that I am going to track down to see what is happening. But if I disable the caching this is what it come back as
2021-02-21T18:21:22.934Z 934 ERROR [99721:Thread-1:views.py:151] Exception: ('Not enough information to resolve the record.', <referencesrv.resolver.hypotheses.Hypotheses object at 0x151ee7af0>)
it would not even attempt it when it knows it is journal that has to have more information. that is the right thing to do, right?

Correct. We should catch the exception and return the error message to the user in a properly encoded json message.
