I once spoke briefly with Rens after a philosophy and cosmology oriented conference, and I have read three of his books. I found them fascinating. I was therefore surprised to find he does not have a Wikipedia page, which I have set about correcting. He is a pioneer in the field, and coverage of his work is growing. Regards.

"did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted."
That's hilarious. I was adding factual information, supported by a Peer reviewed paper. Please explain why you are in favour of historical revisionism? David Highfield (talk) 14:40, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I have given a detailed explanation on Talk:Cosmic_microwave_background#"Predictions_prior_to_the_Big_Bang_interpretation". Johnjbarton (talk) 16:36, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
