Talk:Insubordination

Selim I[edit]

I'm going to remove the reference to "Selim I" as it's rather out-of-place here. John Sheu 21:34, 19 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed.^

Ditto.

Explanation[edit]

I just added the explanation of what it is - strange that it was lacking. 21 September 2006

Bad Words![edit]

Enough with the bad words already, can't you talk without them!--Knowlege: Life's greatest gift, or terrible curse, how do you use it...? (talk) 17:21, 19 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Stop writing things that don't belong in talk pages![edit]

Stanley McChrystal[edit]

I am removing the entry about former U.S. General Stanley McChrystal as being an example of insubordination. My reasoning for this is that the act of speaking poorly of officials through the vehicle of Rolling Stone in no way fits with the definition laid out under the Military entry here at Wikipedia. Insubordination represents the failure to follow a specific order from a higher-ranked individual. I am not able to find any evidence that any order by McChrystal's superiors was not followed by McChrystal. What McChrystal is more liable of being blamed of is contempt, which is laid out in the military's Article 88 - Contempt Towards Officials: http://usmilitary.about.com/od/punitivearticles/a/mcm88.htm. If clear and provable evidence can be produced and cited that shows McChrystal demonstrated insubordination, then the entry should be reinstated. Lostraven (talk) 20:22, 9 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"MacArthur was not relieved for insubordination."[edit]

In the list MacArthur is mentioned as a notable figure who was insubordinated, however Relief_of_General_Douglas_MacArthur states "MacArthur was not relieved for insubordination." its all one big mess really, the way I interpret it he was insubordinated for neglecting the explicit command from the president not to talk to the press... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.49.109.245 (talk) 18:54, 14 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Human resources, Industrial relations[edit]

Insubordination has a clear and understood set of elements, and a widely accepted definition. A labor or employment arbitrator or lawyer could help. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 13:47, 22 March 2019 (UTC) E P I C[reply]
