discussion of the article

Norm Sanders was an environmental candidate, it is unfair to hijack his history by claiming that he was a 'Green' in the political sense of the word. If it is not meant as such, it certainly is inferred. I made the change to reflect reality. I'd also like to question the line that the Green vote in 2002 was the world's highest. It's probably disputable, defiently uncheckable, slightly cheeky. I wont change that though, becuase the line nevertheless sounds preety good.

You are correct that Norm Sanders was never a capital-g "Green" -- he was a lowercase-g "green". I've updated the article to use "green" rather than "environmental" because I believe this is the more accepted term. Barrylb 15:16, 31 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

OK. Thanks for leaving my other change in by the way, some people can be so precious on here. I do have one other point of contention. The Tasmanian Greens were not founded in 1972. In fact, the political party was not registered until 1992 or thereabouts. In 1989, for example, Brown and co ran as Independents.

Someone with more knowledge than I should make that fact plain. It's after all an article about the party, isn't it? What do you think?

Yes agreed, I will check the exact dates and history and update the article with that information (unless someone beats me to it). Barrylb 10:34, 2 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've fixed this detail. To anon - why don't you get an account and help with article as you seem to know quite a bit. --Jgritz 10:44, 2 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've made quite a few changes to the history based on the references I've provided. Lodge any complaints here :) -- Barrylb 13:20, 2 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Dr Richard Jones

I've put together a stub for Dr Richard Jones and I need a little input from people more familiar with Tas history/politics. Was he ever a member of the Tasmanian Greens, or was he just with the UTG? -- Coelacan | talk 08:20, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
