The IEA certainly called peak oil in 2006. Has spent the better part of a decade living down the credibility they incurred because of it.

Unconventional oil has an adjective modifying the noun oil. Sort of difficult then pretend the two together have nothing to do with the oil, don't you think? The USGS uses the term "continuous" which is far more effective.

What do people care about the actual geoscientist definitions in wiki though, right?

I never said conventional and unconventional are peak oiler talk, they are in common usage, the problem being with wildly different definitions. So discretely reservoired and continuous works properly, so does discretely reservoired and light/tight oil and shale gas.

"Fracking" is another one of those terms, used by the oil-ignorant to mean both drilling and completing, when it has nothing to do with one, and is just a subset of the other.

As for Lord Oxburgh, he apparently didn't know enough of geology to understand what the hell a source rock is, let alone its history of production in the US spanning more than a century?

You feel free to quote anyone you want who probably never worked in the basins where source rock plays were developed, hell folks still quote Hubbert and his methods have pretty much been obliterated by that most cruel of mistresses....reality.
