Some protosciences go on to become an widely accepted part of science, such as plate tectonics which eventually became an accepted scientific model. Other protoscientific theories end up being disproven. If their followers refuse to accept the falsification of their theories, protoscience can then become pseudoscience. The falsification of the original theory sometimes leads to reformulation of the theory.
Note: Idiosyncratic theories, or theories with an extremely small base of followers or peculiar to an individual, are not encyclopedic and should not be included. Pure Pseudoscience should not be included, also.
