I am seeing an ‘epistemic status’ descriptor used in some posts. If I want to use it does the community have a standard vocabulary described in a post somewhere or is it up to the author to use it as they like?
I don’t think there’s any standardization. People just make it up as they go. Scott often uses the phrase epistemic status at slatestarcodex, I think that’s where it come from.

I think he got the idea from Muflax’s blog.
