Gosh, I tried to add a comment here an hour so so ago, but apparently it didn't take.

I was trying to say that I just added to the article some citations to print books which I think rather decisively show that the article as it stands mischaracterizes the state of geometrodynamics. First, in two books coauthored by Wheeler and published in 1973, 1995 respectively, he uses Einstein geometrodynamics as a synonym for general relativity, which has certainly never become anabandoned domain of physics! Second, one article in the book edited by Butterfield is on quantum geometrodynamics, which is very much alive.

So I think this article needs to be thoroughly rewritten. If no-one objects (is anyone but me "watching" this page?), I'd like to do that in the next week or so.
