According to the BABOK Guide v3, modeling of requirements can commence with elicitation results in any state. This means that even unconfirmed or preliminary elicitation results can be used to begin modeling, acknowledging that further elicitation may be necessary to refine and validate the models.
Reference from BABOK Guide v3:
'Elicitation Results (any state): modelling can begin with any elicitation result and may lead to the need for more elicitation to clarify or expand upon requirements.' --- BABOK Guide v3, Section 7.1.3 Inputs

I’m not sure if confirmed is necessary, what if we miss something?

Wait, can we really model from just documented results?

I think documented is enough to start.

Agreed, confirmed is the way to go!

It should definitely be confirmed before modeling.

I believe the correct answer is confirmed results, but I might be mixing it up with another topic we covered.

I’m a bit confused; can we model requirements if they are just documented? I thought they had to be confirmed first.

I remember a practice question that mentioned documentation is important, but I feel like confirmation is key too.

I think the results need to be confirmed before we start modeling, but I'm not entirely sure.

I'm pretty confident the answer is "Documented." The question is asking about the state of the elicitation results, and having them documented seems like the minimum requirement before starting to model requirements.

Okay, let's think this through. The question is asking about the state of elicitation results, so I'm guessing the answer has to do with how complete and reliable those results are. "Documented" or "Confirmed" seem like the most logical choices.

Hmm, this seems like a tricky question. I'm leaning towards "Confirmed" since that seems to be the most definitive state for elicitation results before moving on to modeling requirements.

I'm not sure about this one. The wording is a bit confusing, but I think the key is to focus on the term "elicitation results" and what state they should be in.

D) Confirmed? I thought this was a trick question and the answer was supposed to be 'E) Caffeinated'.

B) Any? Might as well just throw a dart at the wall and start modeling whatever it hits. That's the key to success, right?

D) Confirmed, for sure. Anything less and you're just building castles in the air. This is like asking a chef to start cooking without knowing what the ingredients are!

C) Documented? Hmm, I'm not sure about that. Doesn't the question specifically say 'elicitation results'? Documented doesn't necessarily mean confirmed, in my opinion.

I think documented results are sufficient for starting the modelling process.

I agree with Alaine, confirmed results provide a solid foundation for requirements.

B) Any? Really? That's just asking for trouble. You can't just start modeling requirements without knowing if they're even valid!

I think the answer should be D) Confirmed. The requirements need to be clearly defined and validated before we can start modeling them.
