Zeta Psi was a good articles nominee, but did not meet the
good article criteria at the time. There may be suggestions below for improving the article. Once these issues have been addressed, the article can be
renominated. Editors may also seek a reassessment of the decision if they believe there was a mistake.
Zeta Psi 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 : An additional, freely-licensed graphic would add reader interest.
Citing sources : Most fraternity articles would benefit from additional citations, especially new or updated references. These could be from
Baird's manual (last edition published in 1991), or a notable publication or book, a university yearbook, an official university portal listing or where the school comments on the student organization.
Infobox : 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 to update the chapter list and otherwise check the article for necessary updates, annually.
Update : There are several items where citations are needed. These should be addressed. When 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 : Add relevant symbolism to the infobox. Expand the History section. The chapter list should be placed into a table format, like this:
Sigma Delta Rho as an example of a small page list, or like
List of Delta Kappa Epsilon chapters when placed on a separate page (to reference two unrelated examples). (This is 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.
History section
Most of the history included is not noteworthy/relevant to a general audience. It reads more like an advertisement for the fraternity and excessively glorifies its history. I would suggest significantly condensing that section to improve the neutrality of the article.
