Article requests: An additional, freely-licensed graphic would add reader interest. A crest would improve the infobox. Please confirm the chapter names, and provide founding dates where these are missing.
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: 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: Upload and add a crest to the infobox. Also in the infobox, confirm the physical mailing address - it may change over time. Add relevant symbolism to the infobox - anything beyond the Ninja? Is there an official publication? Even if done online, this should be noted, with the name in italics. The chapter list is still missing a reference or two, and missing founding dates for several chapters. 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. Colonies can be listed here, too. Later, once they earn notability in their field, a table may also be used to showcase notable members, but be sure to add Inclusion Rules to avoid vanity listings.
National website: It's understandable, as a new society, but the national website is still "Michigan-centric" and is missing a national perspective. The history section there ought to be expanded to note formation milestones for the other chapters. Nor is it necessary to list all the members, ordered by class: this becomes tedious over time, as the organization grows.
Thanks. You added this exactly right, in the table. I note that the Michigan chapter's website is used in place of a 'national' website, which I could not find. Also, several Greek letter names have not been used in the progression of chapters. There is no Iota chapter, for example. Are we missing any? Or were these just omitted from your national development, so far? Jax MN (talk) 16:18, 21 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
