You're comparing atheism to sweets? Basically, a gnostic atheist is an atheist. The title says "What atheism is not" and then you proceed to write "gnostic atheism" - Don't you see the contradiction between saying that gnostic atheism is not atheism? Dude, it's atheism. It's just the degree of certainty that changes. But it's atheism. It doesn't tell you anything else about the person in question, it doesn't make anyone an anti-theist.
I agree with anti-theism in the section because an atheist doesn't have to be an anti-theist and you can be a theist + anti-theist if you are against god. But gnostic atheism is not separable from atheism because when it exists it's connected to atheistic ideas. Basically, the way you wrote it, if I was an ignoramus about atheists and atheism I'd think that gnostic atheists are a separate group completely different from other atheists

Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
