There's also a fat black wire that connects the case of the alternator to the engine block. Isolated as it is by rubber bushings it needs this wire to charge and won't turn on the alternator light even if it's disconnected.
In fact, that's a good diagnostic test. With the engine off, but the key turned on, does the alternator light light up? If not, it points to either the bulb, the green field wire Landjet mentioned, or this ground.
