This document outlines criteria for evaluating philosophical arguments, claims, and theories: 1. When evaluating an argument, consider whether the philosopher provides good reasons to support their conclusion, rather than simply agreeing or disagreeing with the conclusion. 2. An argument may be weak without proving the conclusion false - weak arguments do not guarantee the truth of the conclusion. 3. Philosophical evaluations should consider clarity, consistency, coherence, and comprehensiveness of concepts, logical contradictions, fit of elements, and breadth of phenomena explained.
