message: Are there more epistemological anarchists than Feyerabend that are considered philosophers? The article seems to equal Feyerabend STOP... Said: Rursus ☻ 14:47, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Feyerabend invented the term somewhat tongue-in-cheek, and I haven't come across any others who adopted it for their own (meta-)beliefs. Skomorokh 15:09, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

message: Writing articles on obscure philosophical theories has a demonstrable real-world effect, as shown by their currency in the renowned debating salons of the 21st-century.  Skomorokh  12:17, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

message: someone tried to remove two links in the 'see also' section, a link to the comparative mythology article, on the basis that it was unrelated, and a link to the chaos magick article, because it was 'tangential'. Pointing to comparative mythology in the see also section is not unrelated- the article speaks of comparative mythology in the second paragraph of the 'rationale' section. Getting rid of the chaos magick link because its 'tangential' is a little overboard; its the 'see also' section, its supposed to  point to articles of related or tangential material. I put it there because there are very notable parallels between the philosophy of chaos magick and epistemological anarchism.
Epistemological anarchism states "the idea that science can or should operate according to universal and fixed rules is unrealistic, pernicious and detrimental to science itself. The use of the term anarchism in the name reflected the methodological pluralism prescription of the theory; as the purported scientific method does not have a monopoly on truth or useful results, the pragmatic approach is a Dadaistic "anything goes" attitude toward methodologies. The theory advocates treating science as an ideology alongside others such as religion, magic and mythology,"
Chaos magick  "emphasizes the pragmatic use of belief systems and the creation of new and unorthodox methods.... chaos magic is often highly individualistic and borrows liberally from other belief systems, due to chaos magic having a central belief that belief is a tool. Some common sources of inspiration include such diverse areas as science fiction, scientific theories, traditional ceremonial magic, neoshamanism, Eastern philosophy, world religions, and individual experimentation."  —Preceding unsigned comment added by ProductofSociety (talk • contribs) 14:19, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

message: There is something weird with this article: I would expect that an epistemological anarchism was a form of anarchism, not a form of epistemology: an anarchism that manifests itself by epistemological dialogue: debunking the falsehood of the merits of any form of authoritarianism but rather (attempting to) proof that ensuring the freedom of each other (=anarchism) is the most beneficial method of improving society.
Anarchist epistemology would be a better fitting title. Since it concerns an anarchistic kind of epistemology. An anarchist way to seek truth or knowledge.
However I think that both are important: "epistemological anarchism" as well as  "anarchist epistemology". It is my humble opinion that this article handles about the latter: "anarchist epistemology"
