Rho Delta Chi is part of the Fraternities and Sororities WikiProject, an effort to build a comprehensive and detailed guide to
Greek Life on the Wikipedia. This includes but is not limited to International social societies, local organizations, honor societies, and their members. If you would like to participate, you can edit the article attached to this page, visit the
project page, where you can join the project, and/or contribute to the
discussion.Fraternities and SororitiesWikipedia:WikiProject Fraternities and SororitiesTemplate:WikiProject Fraternities and SororitiesFraternities and Sororities articles
Article requests : Fix the national website. Many browsers will block it as of 2-7-2024 due to a trojan of the type "JS/Adware.Agent.DA". Add a physical address to the infobox. An additional, freely-licensed graphic would add reader interest.
Infobox : The infobox is 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, annually, to update the chapter list 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 any other relevant, public symbolism to the infobox. List the group's print publication in the infobox, italicized. 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 follows these templates:
Omega Tau Sigma or
Sigma Delta Rho (to reference two unrelated examples). Where Greek letters are expressed, always render them within the GRC language template so that adaptive readers can correctly process them (like "{{lang|grc|ΣΧ}}". Rather than "just" the year, a chapter list may include specific dates of chartering using the {{dts|yyyy|mm|dd}} template, or {{dts|yyyy}} or {{dts|yyyy|mm}} if the specific day is unknown. Indicate if a chapter is active by bolding its name, if inactive by using italics, and in plain text if unknown. The table allows room where chapter references may point to collegiate portal pages (much preferable to a chapter's own website), with comments (EFNs) on where a chapter came from, interesting facts or its outcome. A separate 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.

In a routine round of page cleanup and edits, I note that the national website, at this writing, is being blocked on browsers due to a trojan exploit (JS/Adware.Agent.DA application). It will benefit casual readers of this article, and those seeking to connect with the sorority, to fix this problem. Ping this note with an answer, "done" which will trigger one of the F&S Project editors to continue improving this article.
