965712808 2020-07-02T23:57:19Z Lmtrilling The book review that Generalrelative added as a reference describes Cofnas as a "philosopher".
965142305 2020-06-29T17:14:52Z Generalrelative Cut primary source used for [[WP:OR]].
965141976 2020-06-29T17:12:40Z Generalrelative "American philosopher and PhD Candidate of Philosophy" --> "American PhD Candidate in Philosophy". I haven't seen a reliable secondary source describing Cofnas as a philosopher in his own right.
965138198 2020-06-29T16:45:24Z Generalrelative /* Controversy surrounding debate with MacDonald */ Added citation for connection to Ulster Institute.
965101622 2020-06-29T12:04:37Z FlybellFly /* Controversy surrounding debate with MacDonald */ added note to qualify that the book had been withdrawn
965067241 2020-06-29T06:19:57Z Michael.ridge /* Controversial paper in Philosophical Psychology */
964682195 2020-06-26T23:25:39Z Generalrelative /* Controversy surrounding debate with MacDonald */ "the Arizona State" --> "Arizona State University"
964682111 2020-06-26T23:24:49Z Generalrelative Cut comma.
964682035 2020-06-26T23:24:11Z Generalrelative /* Controversy following debate with MacDonald */ "following" --> "surrounding"
964681948 2020-06-26T23:23:22Z Generalrelative /* Controversy following debate with MacDonald */ Cut statement sourced to Quillette per policy at [[WP:GUNREL]]: "Generally unreliable" sources (such as Quillette) "should never be used for information about a living person."
964660160 2020-06-26T20:24:34Z Generalrelative Even if we were to grant that Cofnas is known for both events (the first has not yet been demonstrated to be covered in reliable sources), it would still be the case that he is known primarily for controversies in both instances, rather than the merits of his arguments.

964649144 2020-06-26T19:05:00Z Lmtrilling Deleted reference to withdrawn book
964648389 2020-06-26T18:58:44Z Lmtrilling Added reference / added response to Jordan Peterson commenting on the paper
964647551 2020-06-26T18:51:38Z Lmtrilling There was an extensive debate between Cofnas and MacDonald, with both of them publishing multiple responses. I will add supporting references.
964417796 2020-06-25T11:09:18Z FlybellFly there was no real "debate" as MacDonald never responded
964417670 2020-06-25T11:07:49Z FlybellFly /* Debate with MacDonald */ there was no real "debate" as MacDonald never responded
964414900 2020-06-25T10:39:40Z FlybellFly /* Controversial paper */
964414718 2020-06-25T10:38:04Z FlybellFly /* Controversial paper */ added new Daily Nous development
964414300 2020-06-25T10:33:59Z FlybellFly Since the author is not notable based on WP:NACADEMIC rules, this academic related categories have been removed.
964414143 2020-06-25T10:32:40Z FlybellFly Since the author is not notable based on WP:NACADEMIC rules, this academic info box has been removed.
964414039 2020-06-25T10:31:37Z FlybellFly Two reasons: (1) Discussion with page creator seems to indicate that this person is noted based on the controversies (GNG) instead of WP:NACADEMIC. (2) this book review covers a book that has been withdrawn from the author from publication since 2012 and thus can no longer serve as a basis for being "known for" in the relevant academic communities.
964253234 2020-06-24T12:32:34Z FlybellFly /* Books */
964182956 2020-06-24T01:35:56Z Generalrelative /* Controversial paper */ Fixed typo.
964181586 2020-06-24T01:26:36Z Generalrelative /* Debate with MacDonald */ Added detail on [[Ulster Institute for Social Research]].
964174214 2020-06-24T00:28:00Z Generalrelative AfD: Nominated for deletion; see [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Nathan_Cofnas]]
964172396 2020-06-24T00:11:19Z Pirhayati I think he is notable according to GNG (reliable sources). Please Afd if you insist.
964169133 2020-06-23T23:43:53Z Generalrelative Proposed deletion. Subject mainly known for [[WP:BLP1E|single event]] (controversy over Philosophical Psychology article); the other ostensibly notable event (debate with MacDonald) is not discussed in any secondary source other than the website undark.org; subject's book being reviewed once does not render him "known for" it; article appears to be largely promotional (formerly listed personal website / twitter account / degree not yet conferred).
964160574 2020-06-23T22:36:16Z Generalrelative Removed [[Oxford University]] (PhD) from info box since the article states that the subject does not yet possess this degree.
964153485 2020-06-23T21:46:44Z Generalrelative /* Controversial paper */ Fleshed out discussion of Inside Higher Ed article on the controversy, removed citations that violate [[WP:RS]], along with statement I couldn't verify on response to petition.
964145735 2020-06-23T20:53:07Z Generalrelative /* External links */ Removed external links which violate [[WP:LINKSTOAVOID]] policy.
964144950 2020-06-23T20:48:18Z Generalrelative /* See also */ Removed non-germane "See also" links.
964144700 2020-06-23T20:46:49Z Generalrelative /* Controversial paper */ Removed unnecessary primary source.
964138134 2020-06-23T20:08:29Z Generalrelative Added link for "[[Conspiracy_theory|conspiracy theories]]".
964137836 2020-06-23T20:06:30Z Generalrelative Added "Citation needed" tag. Primary source does not establish that author is known for this work. It seems rather that this person is known almost entirely for the controversies he's generated.
964136323 2020-06-23T19:56:47Z Generalrelative /* Debate with MacDonald */ Added context on [[Kevin_MacDonald_(evolutionary_psychologist)|MacDonald's]] "theory".
