This paper is a continuation of our works [1, 2], in which we discussed some incorrect approaches to identifying large-scale types of solar wind and related incorrect conclusions drawn when analyzing the solar-terrestrial physics data. In this paper, we analyze the sets of CME-induced, CIR-induced, and multistep magnetic storms for the period of 1996–2004 from the list by Kataoka and Miyoshi [3]. It is shown that a significant number of the events in this list were identified incorrectly and that their interpretation differs, both from our catalog (Yermolaev et al. [4], ftp://ftp.iki.rssi.ru/pub/omni/) for the Sheath, ICME, and CIR and from the catalog by Richardson and Cane [5] for ICME. The use of the uncorrected list of Kataoka and Miyoshi leads to incorrect identification of the interplanetary drivers of magnetic storms and to erroneous conclusions, for example, in paper [6].
