Talk:2003 Bilderberg Meeting

Sources and structure

edit

The main page about Bilderberg is rather cluttered, so I think this per-conference approach is pretty good. I've got a couple of points to make here. Firstly, this would be a good place to mention sources. I'm guessing much of this information comes from http://www.bilderberg.org/2003.htm , which seem like a fairly well-researched resource. However, it's not a primary resource. In particular, what is the source for the 'list of members' press release? I've added Mervyn King on the strength of this release, but I don't really know where it has come from.

Secondly, so far as I understand it, there are 'core' members, who keep coming back year after year. I think it would be useful in the article to list these separately from the one-time-guest members. For one thing, it's unnecessary to list the identical, somewhat non-neutral, biographies of the core members in the entry on each conference. Also, the one-time guests appear to be 'men of the moment'. If these are listed separately, it's clear which are permanent members of the club, and which ones may be only guests.

I know that I could do this work myself, and may do yet, but perhaps someone might comment on these thoughts? Crosbiesmith 22:16, 28 September 2005 (UTC)Reply
