Here are some tasks awaiting attention:
- Article requests : An additional, freely-licensed graphic would add reader interest. Please also complete the last few missing chapter names and dates. Since it seems chapters become inactive and then reactivate relatively quickly, you might include a few lines of discussion about this at the top of the chapters section. Normally, professional societies don't churn these as quickly. Also, there are several instances of two chapter names being given to the same campus. Readers would be interested in why this occurred.
- Citing sources : Most fraternity articles would benefit from additional citations, especially new or updated references. These could be from the original Greek Letter Organization reference, Baird's manual (last edition published in 1991), or a notable publication or book such as a university yearbook (please add missing collegiate yearbooks to this source!), or an official university portal (~website) listing for the group, or where the school comments publicly on that student organization.
- Cleanup : Examples and templates are available on the Fraternities and Sororities Project page.
- Infobox : The infobox may be incomplete. The template used for this entry, where you can see all available fields (--these things: "| = text") is the fraternity-specific infobox. This, and other useful items are linked on the Fraternities and Sororities Project page.
- Maintain : Set a calendar reminder to update the chapter list annually, and otherwise check the article for necessary updates.
- Update : If calling out specific chapters in the body text, italicize the name of the chapter. Wikipedia practice within the F&S Project is that the word "chapter" is not capitalized, while the name of the chapter is.
- Wikify : Add relevant, public symbolism to the infobox. Occasionally, confirm the physical address (including the ZIP code field) and website. Occasionally, confirm the number of chapters and number of lifetime members. Expand the History section to include milestones. The chapter list, now in table form, follows templates like this: Omega Tau Sigma or Sigma Delta Rho (to reference two unrelated examples), and may be placed on a separate standalone page because the list is lengthy (this is subjective, perhaps 30 chapters or more would trigger it, and this organization has far more than that.) A chapter list should include dates of chartering - some of these show the year only, but the full dates may be found in the referenced PDF, "Full History". A few chapters are missing toward the end of the Epsilon series, or start of the Zeta series. Always indicate if a chapter is active by bolding its name, or if inactive by using italics. A table will allow room where chapter references may point to portal pages, and allow comments on where a chapter came from, interesting facts or its outcome. A table may also be used to showcase notable members, but to avoid vanity listings be sure to add a list of rules for inclusion, as discussed here: Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Fraternities_and_Sororities/Archive_6#Notable_members_2. As an example, Phi Kappa Theta does a nice job with their notable members list.
