|Question=What are the historical indicators of a theory’s scientificity? How can observational scientonomists establish that such-and-such a theory was indeed considered scientific/unscientific by a certain epistemic agent at a certain time?
|Topic Type=Descriptive
|Description=TODO: Add a description Can It is unclear whether traditional indicators like textbooks, encyclopedias, conference proceedings, and journals journal articles can be used to determine if evaluation by the demarcation criteria took place?, because scientists may presumably may not keep track of those theories that are not those that are not scientific and those that are scientific but are unaccepted. Despite this quandary, it appears likely that we may find solid indicators of conclusive assessments, while it seems more difficult tp locate indicators of inconclusive assessments. In any case, these are important questions for observational scientonomists in historical investigations of the demarcation criteria.
