Other scientists, such as Donald Prothero another geologist, have reviewed similar data to Ian Plimer and have reached different conclusions

Yet on Donald Prothero's page it does not say other scientists such as Plimer looked at the same data and reached a different conclusion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.224.251.239 (talk) 20:24, 17 April 2019 (UTC)

Yes, because fringe claims need to be contextualised by mainstream science, but mainstream science doesn't need to be evaluated against the fringe. Guettarda (talk) 21:57, 17 April 2019 (UTC)

What is wrong with Climate Feedback source?

I think that page is extremely useful. What is wrong with the "highly respected source" Climate Feedback ? Why is it "not compliant with WP:BLPSPS"? --Hob Gadling (talk) 15:32, 11 January 2020 (UTC)

RSP: "Climate Feedback is a fact-checking website that is considered generally reliable for topics related to climate change. It discloses its methodologies and has been endorsed by other reliable sources. Most editors do not consider Climate Feedback a self-published source due to its high reviewer requirements." I'm also pretty sure that Peter Gulutzan, the editor who removed the content, knows perfectly well that Climate Feedback is a RS, as he has a history of trying to unsuccessfully scrub this source all across Misplaced Pages, and is aware that the RS noticeboard considers it reliable. This is tendentious fringe editing. Snooganssnoogans (talk) 15:38, 11 January 2020 (UTC)
