Would it be a good idea to add a list of famous traitors? Like Judas Iscariot, Brutus, Benedict Arnold? User:71.115.222.77 00:05, 29 December 2005

If that information can be tied into the article; otherwise, I don't see the relevance. Adraeus 20:23, 15 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"Betrayal can occur between two (adult) persons as well as between single persons and a whole group. The story of Gangaji and Eli Jaxon-Bear (two spiritual teachers married to each other) has been defined by them as betrayal of the teacher-disciple-relationship, too. ^[1]. ^[2]

This article looks to me like two dictionary definitions not an encyclopedia article. I suggest this information be added to the relevant wiktionary pages (assuming it is all verifiable) and the dab page moved to this page. Abtract (talk) 13:57, 31 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Agree. This page survived an AfD in 2005 on the grounds that it was brand new then and might develop into an encyclopedia article. In 5 years it has not done so. Looks like in addition Double cross (disambiguation) should be moved to Double cross. 64.105.65.28 (talk) 14:35, 31 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently this is a continuing saga. See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Double cross and Talk:Double cross. I think it is time for another AfD. 64.105.65.28 (talk) 17:22, 1 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I started an AfD but I cannot complete it, except by explaining here. The article already has had and AfD and was kept simply because it was new. Now, 5 years later, it is not new but the reason for deletion remains: it is a dictionary definition plus clutter. The article Double cross also was put up for AfD and result was delete, moving the content to this article. The belongs here even less than it belonged at the original article; this is a dictionary word and the article content simply is not encyclopedic. 64.105.65.28 (talk) 19:23, 1 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Given that betrayal is a fundamental ingredient of human interaction, I think there is more to it than a mere definition. Regardless, the betrayal trauma material should be kept somewhere. --DanielCD (talk) 15:56, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

What about a feeling of betrayal towards teachers who do nothing to stop bullying? I remember teachers who actually encouraged it and even thought it was "cute" when the child of a higher socioeconomic status bullied one of a lower. Kids know when favoritism is being played, but can this be traumatizing? --DanielCD (talk) 15:54, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It is true that betrayal is underviewed as it can cause pain beyond belief, yet people are to busy complain about seaguls stealing chips, for example is there another way to reverse the bad emotional effects? 21:43 26 november 2010 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.155.149.171 (talk) 21:44, 26 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
