I support fraternal organizations. I am not interested in adding fuel to the low-level conflict between Philippine groups calling themselves fraternities. As I've watched their conflict unfold, each tries to top the other, with claims of more and more chapters, and adding flags for more and more countries. Yet these groups are perhaps four decades old. The claims made of having "10,000 chapters" in four dozen countries just do not ring true. These claims are unsubstantiated with no source citations or third-party confirmation. The editors making these claims are exceedingly emotionally involved in pressing them, and engaging in edit wars.
Look, these claims would make these Philippine fraternities the largest fraternities in the world, and without any evidence to prove the claim, the whole idea is dubious at best. Wikipedia depends on factual sources. These unsubstantiated claims would make these groups among the largest commercial entities in the world - not just as fraternities. Yet they don't even have websites, relying on a few Facebook pages and scant mention in newspapers, mostly about gang-like violence. As we used to say in the US, "I call Shenanigans."
This problem doesn't just affect Alpha Kappa Rho, but all the Philippine groups that appear as rivals. Jax MN ( talk) 19:46, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
