Article history
| Date | Version | Change |
|---|---|---|
| 1.1 | Deepened the Roko's Basilisk article with clearer separation of the original thought experiment, mirror-dependent provenance, later LessWrong discussion, information-hazard framing, media and meme reception, implicit-religion analysis, and explicit non-threat boundaries. | |
| 1.0 | English article incorporated into the Hieropedia corpus. | |
| 1.2 | Removed internal project-workflow narration from the English article body while preserving subject boundaries, evidence limits, source distinctions, and classification rationale in metadata. | |
| 1.2 | Corrected translations of this entry’s topic tags. | |
| 1.3 | Corrected article language and source attribution across editions. | |
| 1.4 | Reorganized the original argument, deletion history and later reception, distinguishing the documented thought experiment from familiar retellings. |
