Starobinsjy in history section
[edit]The section about Starobinsky is not very accurate so I will try to improve it by removing the inaccuracies. Here is my justification
It says "Although Alexei Starobinsky of the L.D. Landau Institute of Theoretical Physics in Moscow developed the first realistic inflation theory in 1979[5][6] he failed to articulate its relevance to modern cosmological problems." This part seems fair
It goes on "Due to political difficulties in the Soviet Union, regarding the free exchange of scientific knowledge, most scientists outside the USSR remained ignorant about Starobinsky's work until years later." This is not true. For example Barrow cited Starobinsky in his 1981 paper in Nature and Starobinsky was present at Hawking's Nuffield conference on inflation in 1982. So his recognition and participation in subsequent developments began very soon after Guth's work
Finally it reads "Starobinsky's model was relatively complicated, however, and said little about how the inflation process could start." Starobinsky's paper was short and simple. It is odd that the lack of a starting process is cited as a criticism in the article on eternal inflation in which it is assumed that there was no start. Starobinsky assumed a pre-existing de-sitter phase as in eternal inflation. Weburbia (talk) 19:36, 24 March 2014 (UTC)

Kohli and Haslam 2014 is notable?
[edit]The paper "Mathematical Issues in Eternal Inflation" by Kohli and Haslam, cited in the "further developments" section has merely 6 citations. Is that really notable enough to worth mentioning? The only citation given to support it here is the primary source. Top.Squark (talk) 20:06, 6 July 2021 (UTC)
