Does he actually have a master's? He's been pretty purposefully vague about his degree from Oxford. Says he "was educated"...which in my resume sniffing experience, usually means attended but didn't get a degree. Not making an accusation per se...just saying we don't seem to have any source, even McI for the master's. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.127.134.132 ( talk) 18:28, 14 August 2010 (UTC)
This edit failed to identify or indicate the position of The Heartland Institute in running the Fourth " International Conference on Climate Change" in 2010, and included unfounded damaging remarks about another living person put in Wikipedia's voice. It's based on, and extensively quoting, The American Spectator, a conservative organ evidently supporting Heartland's conservative and libertarian public policies. All very in-universe, promoting fringe views and with BLP issues, so removed it. . dave souza, talk 09:40, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
An oddity: McIntyre, in his brief online autobiography that we cite, spells his name "Steven." (He goes by Steve at his blog and elsewhere.)
But, in at least some of his publications, his author name is given as "Stephen".
I'm not proposing to do anything about this, just noting it for the record. -- Pete Tillman ( talk) 02:06, 12 December 2014 (UTC)
Section = 109 BLP articles labelled "Climate Change Deniers" all at once. This article was placed in a "climate change deniers" category. After discussion on
WP:BLPN and
WP:CFD the category was deleted.

I added a brief mention that McIntyre was an expert reviewer for IPCC. https://climateaudit.org/2007/03/28/accessing-hegerl-data/ This seems like an obvious relevant fact for assessing his credentials. Maybe someone should flesh it out; the only source I had is kind of roundabout. MikeR613 ( talk) 14:11, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
Undone, as misuse of WP:PRIMARY sources and blog WP:ABOUTSELF which promotes WP:BLP claims about others. As pointed out by others, it's no big deal to be an expert reviewer, deliberately so that governments can get a wide range of input. Your idea that it's "impressive sounding" is unusable original research. The stuff about him "he was making some reasonable-sounding requests that were annoying some of the scientists involved" is his blog making BLP accusations about others, completely unacceptable. This is a topic area subject to sanctions, don't reinsert it. . . dave souza, talk 18:35, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
