To-do list for Phi Kappa Phi: edit · history · watch · refresh · Updated 2024-04-30 Here are some tasks awaiting attention: Citing sources : 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. Maintain : Set a calendar reminder to update the chapter list and otherwise check the article for necessary updates, annually. Wikify : A chapter list is needed. The chapter list should be placed into a table format.

Description of Seal

There was an edit made attempting to correct/clarify some language in the description of the Seal. I agree with the anonymous edit claiming that Troy is not considered part of Ancient Greece. However, the language in that section, as vague as it might be on the distinction, is taken directly from Phi Kappa Phi chapter sites. The purpose of the section is to explain the symbolism of the society's seal. I'm not sure who has more authority to talk about the symbolism of a society's seal than the society itself; and regardless of whether the Society is correct in its understanding (if it is even making the claimed assertion), it is cited and verifiable as the symbolism stated by the Society. If anyone has any suggestions as to how to resolve this without WP:OR, please let us know.Lhakthong (talk) 16:43, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

Notable Members

The Notable Members list of this page has been changed quite a bit since it was edited in 2009. Specifically, the list that was taken directly from a society document has grown to include names of people that cannot be verified to be members of the Society. o, I am adding a "citations needed" tag to the Notable Members section. I will wait a bit before deleting names. The Society itself has a selected list of members here, and I hope to eventually add any missing names and cite the aforementioned source for those names. I'd like to also suggest the list not turn into a list of every single Phi Kappa Phi member person with a Misplaced Pages page, because then it becomes longer than the rest of the article itself, and that the Notable Members list can be a "selected" list of members referring, at least to begin with, those names on the Phi Kappa Phi site.

Thanks! The Notable Members section does have an editors comment at the beginning asking for citations, but it hasn't been held to, it seems. If we include all people on this page's Notable Members list that would be considered notable by virtue of having a wikipedia page, we might very well need to create a separate page for notable members. I am sure it would be long.Lhakthong (talk) 17:19, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
