|Preamble=Once we accept that questions in the scientonomic ontology as a separate class of epistemic elements, it becomes reasonable to inquire into the mechanism of question acceptance, i.e. how epistemic communities come to accept certain questions as legitimate and others as illegitimate. It becomes equally legitimate to inquire about the historical indicators of question acceptance, i.e. how an observational scientonomist cam establish that a certain question was in fact accepted by a certain epistemic agent at a certain time.
|Modification=Accept the following question as legitimate topics of scientonomic inquiry:
* [[Mechanism of Question Acceptance]]: How do questions become accepted as legitimate? What is the mechanism of question acceptance?
* [[Indicators of Question Acceptance]]: What are the historical indicators of theory acceptance? How can observational scientonomists establish that such-and-such a question was accepted as a legitimate topic of inquiry by a certain epistemic agent at a certain time?
