This article has been given a rating which conflicts with the project-independent quality rating in the banner shell. Please resolve this conflict if possible.
Article requests : An additional, freely-licensed graphic would add reader interest.
Citing sources : A lack of references is the biggest single problem with this article. Most fraternity articles would benefit from additional citations, especially new or updated references. These could be from a notable publication or book, a university yearbook, an official university portal listing or where the school comments on the student organization.
Infobox : The infobox is incomplete. The template best 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 and otherwise check the article for necessary updates, annually.
Update : Upload and add a crest to the infobox, along with color swatches, a physical address, website, important symbolism and a number of (average) active members and of lifetime members. The article shows flags of five countries: only use flags if there are chapters in each of these countries. If this is just where members live, do not include a flag. Most fraternal organizations have members living internationally, so this is out of scope to track on a Wikipedia page. If calling out specific chapters in the body text, italicize the name of the chapter. Wikipedia practice is that the word "chapter" is not capitalized, while the name of the chapter is.
Wikify : The infobox should also include the name of any publication. Expand the History section with a dialog in addition to the milestones listed. With a presence in several nations, a chapter list should be placed into a table format, like this: Omega Tau Sigma or Sigma Delta Rho (to reference two unrelated examples), or as a separate standalone page when the list is lengthy (subjective, perhaps 30 chapters or more). A chapter list should include dates of chartering. 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. Similarly, a list of notable members should be places in a table form, to allow for a short synopsis of their notability, and references.
