Seems pretty easy, if there are a wide variety of differing opinions then cite the most accomplished author from each perspective and let the user figure it out.
- AstixAndBelix 4y agoHow do you determine which is the most accomplished author?
- throwaway4aday 4y agoNumber of citations, book sales, number of links on the web, awards, use of their work in curricula? Probably a thousand other less obvious ways to determine this too.
- Larrikin 4y agoThe bible, Koran, and many other religious text are among the best selling and most read books in all of human history. Should their perspective be giving high weight when you ask how the earth formed?
- AstixAndBelix 4y agoHow do you determine the quality of the citations? How do you determine the quality of the books? How do you determine the quality of the awards? How do you determine the quality of links on the web? This is not "simple" in the slightest, you are just swiping all the complexity under the rug
- throwaway4aday 4y agoAnything would be better than copy pasting your own biases, if you're really unsure of the providence of the authors then just provide a bigger list.
