Dark fluid / dark flow - suggested removal
[edit]I would propose that dark fluid and dark flow be removed from the categories. While dark matter and dark energy are widely believed and discussed by hundreds of papers, the dark fluid is a somewhat speculative theory that has not been worked out in much detail. Dark flow is an observation by a single group which has been substantially disputed. Per WP:NOR and WP:Due_weight, I suggest dark fluid and flow should be removed as overly speculative. They deserve articles, but not a link in the main Physical Cosmology template. Wjs64 (talk) 00:43, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
Add Kepler to the Scientists?
[edit] | This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= parameter to no to reactivate your request. |
Can Kepler be added? IMO he’s kinda in the same league as Copernicus and quite likely better known than some of the other names in there. Frankly, I was a little surprised not to see him there first time I opened the list. Abel (talk) 02:04, 8 February 2022 (UTC)
Somnath Bharadwaj
[edit]I'm not super knowledgeable on modern physical cosmology, but is Somnath Bharadwaj really notable enough to warrant inclusion in this template? PianoDan (talk) 16:59, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
- From what we have in his article, I would say probably not. Primefac (talk) 08:39, 21 June 2022 (UTC)

Remove Illustris project from "Experiments"
[edit]Illustris project is an on-going effort to create cosmological simulation suites of unprecedented size and accuracy to study galactic evolution on cosmological scales. While simulations can be certainly referred to as "experiments", it's really out-of-place next to all the sky surveys listed in this section. Additionally, there are other, scientifically relevant simulation suites too, like the Millennium Run, CAMELS or FIREBox just to mention a few. I don't see any reason why cherry-pick Illustris here.
Very recently I started to work on a separate Template:Computational cosmology, a branch of physical cosmology to collect the currently completely unorganized and missing, but important and related subjects. Besides other things, I intend to collect relevant cosmological simulation suites there in a dedicated list, making it unnecessary to keep Illustris here.
I'm also working on the Computational cosmology article, which we could reference here once I publish it.
