Copied this over from Steve Booth talk page in case anybody wants to integrate it into the article somehow (it's a shame the original poster didn't do so themselves as they seem to have plenty to say as to what 'should' be in the article) quercus robur 10:57, 31 Dec 2004 (UTC);

Hi, Wikipedia,

I am an editor of the 'original and best' (non-Steve Booth) GA now and just want to suggest a few updates and amendments:

1) Paul Rogers is not 'Paul Rodgers' and has never had anything to do with Free. Check out his pamphlet, 'Green Anarchism: It's Origins & Influences', your prime source for stuff on GA, for biographical info.

2) You should give a little more context about the GAndALF trial other than just through links. You need say litle more extra than that it was an attempt to the police to suppress reporting of direct action by the alternative media so thy could monopolise its representation. You might also mention this was in parallel with their attempts to misrepresent DA in the mainstream media and their infiltration of provocateurs like Tim Hepple / Matthews into the movement, but the links cover that.

3) You link only Steve's side of the 2000 split, which is disingenuous to say the least. You should at least run it alongside the 'original and best' GA64-65 editorial statement or link in comment from primitivism.com on thios available through any key word search. The fact is, Steve's 'GA' is only produced as a spoiler at best, is weak in terms of content and presentation (e.g. virtually zero DA coverage, liberal / reformist analysis, etc), and dwindles issue by issue.

4) Elsewhere you refer to GA as unrepresentative of green anarchism, confuting it even with electoral currents. We bagged the term in 1984. I suggest you refer to these others as 'anarchist Greens' - those that ARE anarchists, that is.
