 Description   

This part is quite confusing and recursive:

If you do not specify an authentication database, mongo assumes that the database specified as the argument to --authenticationDatabase holds the user’s credentials.

I think it should say that we use the database specified in the connection string, if authenticationDatabase is not specified.
