Mistake
- Right-regular *prisms with square side faces ... are semi-regular [polyhedra].
Correction
Technically, right-regular prisms with square side faces which also have square bases are not semi-regular polyhedra, as they are cubes, and so all faces are congruent.
The faces of a semi-regular polyhedron are specifically not all congruent.
