Some evidence
Hello.
If I write "White (2055) provides some evidence of X" instead of "White (2055) provides evidence of X," am I weakening the power of the evidence?
It seems to me that "some evidence" indicates that there is evidence, but there is also room for doubt. What do you think?
Thank you very much.

- You yourself are not weakening the power of the evidence.
- You aren't actually doing anything to the evidence.
- But you may be mischaracterizing it if it's stronger than just "some evidence", which suggests "less evidence than is completely convincing".
- It's your judgment call.
