Withdrawn
A withdrawal is closure. Also, the DRV has been withdrawn so your comment is not necessary.— Ryulong ( 竜龙 ) 07:38, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Thank you for closing just before I could make a comment, and also thank you for withdrawing just before a keep or a very unlikely delete was enforced. Says a lot, -- MST  ☆  R   (Chat Me!) 07:43, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
 * It was closed before you made the comment, but Yeti Hunter did not know the proper method of doing so. I have given up on getting the article deleted because it is clear that the community's guidelines are not as strict as I thought they were. I may decide to nominate it again in a few months. I may not. But the fact is that it's been kept at AFD, because I realized that there was not a snowball's chance in hell of my proposal being listened to by anyone. I still do not think that Zyzz is notable for inclusion, but so long as his mayfly existence is covered by the Australian media, I won't have much of a choice in the matter.— Ryulong ( 竜龙 ) 07:46, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
 * "In a few months" worries me Ryulong. This was a clear keep, and if "a few months" is less than 6, I will be very unimpressed.  WormTT   &middot; &#32;(talk) 07:50, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Consensus can change. It is just clear that 2 weeks is not nearly enough to make that change.— Ryulong ( 竜龙 ) 07:51, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Or that out of the 23 or so people who participated, 1 or 2 supported your opinion. -- MST  ☆  R   (Chat Me!) 07:58, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Whatever. It was clearly going to be kept. I decided to just live with that fact and end the temptation to keep commenting. If our general policies or applications thereof change and it is clear this individual no longer qualifies under our guidelines, I will seek that it be removed, again. Until then, I hope we do not cross paths on this site.— Ryulong ( 竜龙 ) 08:01, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

please stop vandalising pages
Thanks. It is very annoying. There is no need to delete factual sourced statements (sourced from reading the book duh). If you are going to say that The Tripods main evil robot was similar to The War of The Worlds, then why is there a problem with saying that the plot is almost identical to The Hunger Games? The fact is that it is the same. Both have 12 villages, both have the entire plot being about people forced to fight each other for the amusement of their overlords. How is it unsourced to say that they aren't similar! They are almost identical! Or are you going to say that Avatar is NOT a rip off of John Carter???? Some people! I was trying to improve your article but (Redacted). Good job. Please stop this nonsense. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 123.2.223.96 (talk) 06:19, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

 * But you WERE! AND ARE! Why are you so determined to remove facts???????? Are you determined to destroy Wikipedia? Very, very bad of you. And I added some links for you. I don't see why you need to include links when every plot synopsis ever written has the two as being almost identical. And I put exactly what every plot synopsis ever written has said. My god, boy, what the hell is wrong with you? Just stop your nonsense, get back in your box, and do something constructive for a change. Your edits were not good faith. You know full well that I was writing the truth and yet you threaten, lie and distort it! Why? What kind of a power trip are you on??? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 123.2.223.96 (talk) 14:42, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

For heaven's sakes. This isn't hard. I wasn't lying. I was quoting from the books, and the movies. There was nothing controversial, nothing untrue. There was no reason whatsoever for your behaviour. I was not personally attacking you. You and the others were attacking me! For what? So that you can pretend that The Hunger Games was original? It isn't. Perhaps nothing is. But the similarities between that and The Tripods are well documented and are about as similar as John Carter is to Avatar. If you are all about improving Wikipedia, you'd stop this nonsense. Just step back for a moment and see the harm you are doing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 123.2.223.96 (talk) 14:41, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

Jersey Shore spinoffs
Thanks for the kudos; it's very kind of you. The only reason I decided to start the SaJvtW article (aside from feeling that it was early enough in its development that I'd only need to write a brief stub article based on the available sources) was that the two stars were staying in Jersey City, which is the next town south of mine, and I tend to photograph subjects pertaining to Hudson County (it's one of the main areas I concentrate on, along with reality television). In truth, I've never seen Jersey Shore, and doubt that I'll be watching either spinoff.

In any event, the PaulyD article doesn't look that bad. What do you think is wrong with it? The only two things I could spot in it that needed help were that the fourth citation was missing its publication info (which I fixed), and that the biographical info in the Cast table could use citations (something which a lot of people seem to think is unimportant, but which I insist should be sourced just as everything else should be). I suppose you might also look for more secondary sources that might provide more information for the Production history section, and maybe some critics' reviews or write-ups that might form the basis of a Critical reception section (if you can find any). Is that helpful? Nightscream (talk) 15:45, 3 April 2012 (UTC)

SVU renewal
I've just responded to your post on Kevinbrogers' talk page, but wanted to add a thought I felt didn't belong there. As I said, you made an honest, if preventable, mistake. You owned up to the fact you aren't all that familiar with American TV, which I respect. But that also calls for a cautionary note: it might not be a bad idea in future to ask an American editor to check you on your understanding of sources if you're not sufficiently familiar with American TV to interpret them yourself. I'm always happy to take a peek at a source, and double-check you if that would be helpful. Just so you know, the TCA's (Television Critics' Association) meetings are held in Pasadena, CA twice a year, in summer and in winter, to promote the two halves of the season. It's becoming increasingly commonplace for networks to run a new group of short-run series (see Touch on Fox or Missing on ABC, for example) in the late winter and early spring, which the spring TCA's promote, and at which time the status of the fall series are updated (you could see reference to Prime Suspect, which had just finished its failed run, for example). Sometimes the networks put the fall series into extended periods of reruns during that time, or will temporarily pull a series before they come back around now with a new group of episodes that conclude the season. Regardless, I wouldn't be surprised that, if in the next two or three weeks, NBC does renew the show. --Drmargi (talk) 14:31, 12 April 2012 (UTC)
 * The American editor idea, I'll definately take that one on board. I wish Australian networks were the same, that way it'd be more understandable for me! :) Thank you, -- MST  ☆  R   (Chat Me!) 09:32, 14 April 2012 (UTC)

Muttath Tirumala temple
Hi there, just to let you know that I removed your speedy tag from the Muttath Tirumala temple article. Generally you should only tag things as A1 or A3 after giving the original author time to improve the article. 15 minutes is probably enough. Tagging a page as A1 or A3 one minute after creation is definitely too soon though. Thanks for doing new page patrolling, by the way - it really helps. :) Best —  Mr. Stradivarius ♫ 05:42, 29 April 2012 (UTC)
 * I think I undid you again, prior to this message - sorry about that - but the article does not have any content, that establishes what the article is about - it can always be userfied for the user? -- MST  ☆  R   (Chat Me!) 05:43, 29 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Yeah, the tag was perfectly accurate - it was just too soon, that's all. I'll have a look around and see if there are any references that we can use to create a decent stub about it. —  Mr. Stradivarius ♫ 05:45, 29 April 2012 (UTC)

Round Square page
I am an employee of Round Square (marketing assistant) and been asked by Brian Dawson to update the Round Square wikipedia page. Is there a reason why you are not allowing my changes? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Suzbookred (talk • contribs) 08:28, 2 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Hi and Welcome to Wikipedia!

Dear Melbourne Star, are you from a Round Square School? Are you a member of Round Square Board or the secretariat? I am an employee of Round Square and have received full permission from Rod Fraser the Chairman and Brian Dawson the Round Square Executive Director to amend the Round Square website and the Wikipedia website. I produce a lot of the copy for the Round Square A5 brochures and website so an the original author of this information. I need to update the Round Square Wikipedia page as it is currently wrong and should be amended to be inline with the rest of the Round Square information. Please allow me to do this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Suzbookred (talk • contribs) 08:53, 2 May 2012 (UTC)
 * With all due respect, I'm not interested where you work, what position you are at etc. that's frankly irrelevant. Until you or whoever is in charge of that website releases it to the public domain (removing copyright status), that content you want copied, won't be, as it will be considered a copyright violation - those who continue to add copyrighted material to Wikipedia (after being told not to), end up being blocked quite quickly.

Round Square - copyright violation!!!
Dear MelbourneStar. Thank you for your response but if the information on the Round Square Wikipedia page is incorrect then surely it is only right that someone with my knowledge of Round Square should be able to update it to be correct so that readers are not misled?

I have not copied any information from the RS website to wikipedia, I write copy for the organisation all the time. It will look similar as the information needs to be consistent with everything else that is out there otherwise its incorrect.

Perhaps you can give me some guidance on how I can get some changes made to the Round Square wikipedia page to make sure it is correct. I am not trying to sell anything, or market anything, just make sure the information is up to date so the reader reads what is true.

Do you know how I find out who put the page on Wikipedia in the first place? Surely its wrong of someone to do that unless they are an expert in that area of have a strong knowledge of what Round Square is and does? Or am I missing something here?

Do you work for Wikipedia? If not, then why do you have the right to edit the content of the RS page, or even be the "gatekeeper" of what's on that page? look forward to your reply. --Suzbookred (talk) 14:20, 2 May 2012 (UTC)Suzbookred (talk) 10:49, 2 May 2012 (UTC)

Thank you but...
I call it like I see it.

I see a violation of WP:CIVIL, a lot of taunting, and definite WP:BITE behavior on User Talk:SkepticAnonymous.

I also see EGREGIOUS violations of WP:BLOCK policy including complete lacks of any warnings, deliberate taunting by admins, and utterly illegal WP:COOLDOWN-style blocking. The best case scenario is that they've just driven a promising new editor from wikipedia, the worst case they've taunted someone so far that he/she will turn into a recurring vandal and create more problems for us.

There's nothing here to assume good faith about, it's abusive behavior by a group of admins, simple as that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.196.233.155 (talk) 12:51, 3 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Two wrongs, don't make a right, simple. There are many ways to approach issues on Wikipedia - or in real life, and that doesn't mean being uncivil. -- MST  ☆  R   (Chat Me!) 12:54, 3 May 2012 (UTC)
 * You collectively should have thought of that before allowing that level of abusive behavior by the powerful and corrupt on wikipedia. It's not my fault 99% of admins give the rest a bad name. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.196.233.155 (talk) 13:01, 3 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Your above comment is a borderline personal attack to all the hard working administrators on the project, which I would say is 99% of them. Please do not refer to anyone here as "corrupt" - that is a personal attack, and on the note of Admins being uncivil - I would perhaps consider your own actions before mentioning other's. A suggestion would be to cool off, and then discuss with the specific editor's involved. Thank you, -- MST  ☆  R   (Chat Me!) 13:07, 3 May 2012 (UTC)
 * What word WOULD you describe a concerted campaign of WP:CIVIL, WP:BITE, and general taunting of a user along with a completely unwarned and unwarranted block and multiple violations of WP:BLOCK policy that were completely unconstructive and contributed nothing to cooling down the situation? Followed by increasing the block by multiple days after the user had already stated they understood policy and would not edit war again, repeatedly? I concur with the user, what happened on that talk page was the equivalent of a bully grabbing a kid's arm and playing at the "stop hitting yourself" game. I choose the word "corrupt" to describe that sort of action by people who hold power, because that's the correct word to use for such an action. If you disagree with me, tell me what word you would use, but I stand by my statements as accurate and I see no reason to rescind my words on the matter. Your action here to threaten me for speaking up simply proves my point.
 * I will remind you also: WP:COOLDOWN blocks are forbidden, not that admins ever bother to follow the rules it appears. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.196.233.155 (talk) 13:16, 3 May 2012 (UTC)
 * You may take my AGF warning as a warning - or just as much needed advice, because you talk of Cooldown blocks being forbidden, but I can assure you AGF/NPA blocks are not. You cooling off, taking a deep breath, maybe even doing something else for a few minutes, will make things a lot easier for you - and I'm sure everyone will be able to understand and listen to what you are saying. Finally, there are millions of things wrong with this world, big issues to be solved; "corrupt" leaders; poverty etc. - The whole world does not need to stop because someone has been temporarily blocked on a website.

James Haskell
He shot at ME, for God's sake! I was working in a friend's garden, in Montpelier Row, and he was visiting next door. He was in a upstairs window, chugging beer and firing an air rifle. I shouted, he just laughed drunkenly and we had a robust exchange of views. Coupled with his exploits at school, you can see that he's a ****ing menace. I did write the entry in such a way as not to be libellous, however.

No, he didn't hit me! If he had, he (and his sports career) would be toast. He was firing from an upstairs window into the garden, and thought it was funny to ping the pellets off the stones around me. What do you need to 'verify'? Dead bodies? ;-)

No, it's okay. I understand how careful Wikipedia has to be, but I thought the entry (thus framed) would remind him not to be the serial arse that he is.

Is wikipedia about truth or fiction?
You recently claimed I'm in an "edit war" but did not write the same thing to the person who started the "edit war" - JFHJr.

Why?

I am also curious why Wikipedia users like yourself choose to purport fiction over fact. The edit I did yesterday - which was completely reverted by JFHJr to it's previous version - is completely accurate.

Now Harizotoh9 has come in and again added fiction.

If you read the edit history of Ira Eihorn you will find that those two users continually insist on ignoring the truth and cite a single article which erroneously indicates Einhorn was the master of ceremonies when the fact - the truth - is that there was no and Einhorn's only role at the event had been as a liaison with poet and featured speaker Allen Ginsberg. But Einhorn didn’t merely introduce Ginsberg — he "commandeered the stage" speaking "incoherently" for half an hour and refusing repeated requests to leave and let the program continue. This was said under oath by a respected doctor.

His testimony is corroborated by the actual event organizers who wrote Ira Einhorn’s claims that he was a founder or organizer of Earth Day are false. He is a fraud. Einhorn, given a small role on the stage at Earth Day, grabbed the microphone and refused to give up the podium for thirty minutes.

So is every article on wikipedia based on lies and misinformation or only this one? — Preceding unsigned comment added by TruthTime8752 (talk • contribs) 06:01, 12 May 2012 (UTC)
 * This is something you can write - on the article's talk page, instead of edit warring / violating 3RR. User:JFHJr has been here for nearly six years, I would assume that they would have a clear understanding of what wp:3RR is. Plus generally, it's looked down upon to "template a regular"

Thank you, Melbourne. I appreciate your consideration. I do indeed know when not to tread further alone. I've posted at WP:BLPN, which is how I came to the article in the first place. I'll sit back for a bit. Please, TruthTime, never worry, I don't pretend my edits are perfect, so I expect they'll be well revised. We aren't the only ones to have a look. And not to nit pick, but it's been nearly 7. Thanks again, Melbourne. JFHJr (㊟) 06:27, 12 May 2012 (UTC)

"Something you can write on the articles talk page" - ROTFL - people going to wikipedia to find FACTS just read the article - and sometimes the references - but not the talk page.

I did block the user for personal attacks, but maybe if several of you hadn't been violating WP:BLANKING, he wouldn't have gotten so angry and started attacking you all. Qwyrxian (talk) 14:37, 14 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Don't pass the buck on us all - name calling, regardless of what it is, is purely unacceptable. People do get their feelings hurt, I being one of them. I reverted one edit that contained those personal attacks - I didn't revert it to preserve those warnings. Hopefully you keep that in mind, before lecturing editor's on anything - not everyone doesn't take things to heart as do many people. -- MST  ☆  R   (Chat Me!) 14:44, 14 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Oh, and per WP:BLANKING - "A number of important matters may not be removed by the user—they are part of the wider community's processes" ~ "For IP editors, templates in Category:Shared IP header templates and notes left to indicate other users may share the same IP address."
 * When I had reverted the editor's personal Attack, I had also reverted their removal of a template within Category:Shared IP. -- MST  ☆  R   (Chat Me!) 15:04, 14 May 2012 (UTC)
 * That template is exactly the opposite of a shared IP template--it's a static IP template, and thus can be removed at whim. Look, I'm not defending the PA. But the fact is that you didn't revert the personal attack, since it was in an edit summary. Your action made the PA no less visible than it was before your revert. The next time, if someone starts with personal attacks, bring the matter to the attention of an admin; you can use WP:ANI, which is a bit of a mess...while technically you can't take it to WP:AIV, since personal attacks aren't exactly the same as vandalism, taking it there in unambiguous cases is fine, because AIV tends to be acted on far more quickly and without as much drama (that, in fact, is how I got into this whole mess). What we want to do is to stop the disruption, stop the bad behavior, and I'm glad that I saw the problem and could block to stop the IP from continuing. I've got the IP's talk page on my watchlist, so I'll see any more actions there, but if the attacks occur on another page you two interact on, feel free to let me know or take it to AIV if you want faster action. Qwyrxian (talk) 03:18, 15 May 2012 (UTC)
 * The Static IP Template is in the Category:Shared IP header templates - which per WP:BLANKING should not be removed by the user. It's not whether the Static template is the same as Shared IP header.
 * Barring that, I understand my involvement - An Administrator getting involved prior, would have been the best option after all.
 * Sorry if I sounded a little grumpy - you did have good intentions. I'll take your advice, Thank you, -- MST  ☆  R   (Chat Me!) 07:06, 15 May 2012 (UTC)

Bees Act 1980
Hello Melbourne Star,

The reliable source that I am quoting in making that amendment is 'The Bees Act 1980' ..

there is a link to the official, UK Parliament, Act on the wiki page; page : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bees_Act_1980 link : http://www.legislation.gov.uk/id?title=Bees+Act+1980 and a direct link to the actual legislation as enacted is here (pdf); http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1980/12/pdfs/ukpga_19800012_en.pdf

The headline of the Bees Act Wiki Page is misleading as there is no reference to 'Chemicals Harmful to Bees' in the actual act. Even though it might seem implied, it is not there. As you will be able to see, the headline of the Bees Act 1980 wiki should therefore be amended to be accurate, according to rules of the wikipedia.

Best

Thank you MelbourneStar,

Can you advise please on how I might correct the headline, of the Bees Act page, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bees_Act_1980 where .. "It seeks to stop the damage caused by diseases, (( chemicals )) and pests that damage the wellbeing of bees. It repealed the Agriculture (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1941."

There is no edit function on this section, what can be dome to change this?

Regards, BlueH2
 * I have reverted that particular sentence, on the grounds that it is unsourced. In Wikipedia article's, if you ever come across content that appears to be wrong, and that is unsourced (no references/or sources), you may remove it, and claim in the edit summary that it is wrong, and that it's "unsourced" - that's why you've removed it. OR, you can go to the article's talk page and discuss the issue there, with other editor's. Other than that, If you need any assistance, whatsover, I'm right here.

Replaceable fair use File:Aziz Shavershian in 2011.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Aziz Shavershian in 2011.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the media description page and edit it to add, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy.

As one who hailed from Orissa in India, most of the news items came out in Oriya language newspapers. I even provided link to one article by one reputed film directors of Orissa about her. How can you still term the facts as unsourced? This came out in a newspaper that is 93 years old. Oriya people swear by it. You chose to ignore the source and removed everything.

L&O character tables
Hey, what do you think of using a table like this one for the Law & Order pages? Davejohnsan (talk) 20:36, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
 * You know, it doesn't look too bad - the colours are a little brighter than the one we have at SVU, but it looks more deatiled, pin-pointing the duration of the character; however, as is with the current table, where will the 'occupation' part (from the original tablle) fit in this one? Or the 'No. Of Eps.' section? - another thing to account for is, we did update all Law & Order cast tables, to their present form, not too long ago - are we going to constantly change the tables? Other than that, this new ER table, is a lot better than some of the tables I've seen here -- by a long shot, -- MST  ☆  R   (Chat Me!) 22:21, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Actually, I'm only referring to the pin-pointed duration of each character -- I'm not proposing a major change to the table. The table in its current condition only lists the duration by the entire season, which is inaccurate for characters that either only appear once in an entire season (like BD Wong did in season 13) or for characters who leave/join in the middle of the season (the transition between Paul Sorvino and Jerry Orbach, for example). Let me show you the improvement I'm aiming for (but ignore the fixed width, I still need to figure out a few quirks in my sandbox):


 * Green = Main character/Also Starring
 * Red = Recurring character/Guest star
 * Gray = Away


 * Well in that case, it actually looks perfect. I agree with how you've done it, and I think it will be beneficial for the article(s) . This is a change for the table to be more accurate, so therefore, it should be changed. Thanks, -- MST  ☆  R   (Chat Me!) 22:52, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
 * It'll probably be a few days before I actually make this change. I've been experimenting on my sandbox, but can't quite figure out what the hell I am doing wrong. Thanks for the input. Davejohnsan (talk) 22:57, 30 May 2012 (UTC)

Your logic baffles me
Are you saying that Dean Winters and Paula Patton were "main cast" members of SVU and not "recurring cast"? How? The Season 1 and Season 12 pages don't seem to think so, and even Davejohnsan who is still against my edit isn't saying this. I'm sure you have a number of reasons why my edit needs to go (even though the section says "casting AND CHARACTERS") but I am currently working on finding better wording for it.

Law and Order question
Hey, just saw your question from several months ago! You asked what was the difference between an Assistant District Attorney and an Assistant Corporation Counsel. An Assistant District Attorney (aka Prosecutor) prosecutes criminal cases, we represent "the People", i.e. in the People of the State of New York vs. Joe Defendant, Joe Defendant has a defense attorney to represent his interests, and ADA's represent the interests of the People in prosecuting him.

Assistant Corporation Counsels represent the city in civil matters, so if for example you get run over by a garbage truck and you sue the city, the city's attorney is an Assistant Corporation Counsel. Hope this helps!
 * Yes, that does help! Thank you! -- MST  ☆  R   (Chat Me!) 07:27, 23 June 2012 (UTC)

Asking question about recall
Hi Star! Please avoid asking questions about recall as they are not useful nor makes any difference other then increase of opposes if difference of opinions occur. In past when asked such questions, the editor who asks that questions are asked to striked off their question. Read this for more info: Wikipedia_talk:Requests_for_adminship/Archive_164,, Categories_for_discussion/Log/2008_August_17, and Wikipedia_talk:Administrators_open_to_recall/Archive_3. I hope that you'll also remove that question. Cheers!  →TSU tp* 10:14, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
 * It was not my intention to cause a fuss and I do understand where you're coming from, I shall proceed with striking my question regarding a recall. I just wanted them to disclose their opinion on recall, just like they have disclosed their opinion on many other topics, that may have a mixed response from the community. A Recall isn't something that should be taken as controversial - it's a third opinion on whether or not someone should continue on with being an administrator.

 * No problem. Even I'd like to ask that question to few editors but the topic is too controversial and many admins as well as experienced editors consider asking that question not useless but troublemaker. A similar thing occurred here when editor asked that question at 2 RfAs which are on right now (Requests for adminship/SwisterTwister and Requests for adminship/Zagalejo). The question isn't the problem, it's the irrational responses to it that are problematic. Thanks :)  →TSU tp* 10:37, 2 July 2012 (UTC)

 * What you'll need to do, when using the File Upload Wizard, is:
 * 1 - Choose the file you'd like uploaded to Wikipedia (Choose a file from your computer; Permitted file types: png, gif, jpg, jpeg, xcf, pdf, mid, ogg, ogv, svg, djvu, tiff, tif, oga. )
 * 2 - Describe your file (What is the image of? if it's of a person, whom? etc.)
