What type of historical markers can be taken as indicative that a question was accepted by an agent at a given time?

As accepted questions change through time, it is important to have methods of establishing that such-and-such a question was accepted as a legitimate topic of inquiry by a certain epistemic agent at a certain time. What are the indicators of question acceptance that observational scientonomists may employ to determine what questions were a part of a mosaic at any given time? An answer to the question of what sorts of evidence are acceptable as indicators of question acceptance is an essential step in enabling observational scientomists to identify which historical markers are relevant in deliberations over what questions were included in past and contemporary mosaics.
