A list of chapters that does not contain a single link to a chapter (as far as I checked) The Banner  talk 14:29, 4 March 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Keep - appears to be a typical list. I am confused by the deletion reason; there appear to be multiple such links. VMS Mosaic ( talk) 02:19, 5 March 2015 (UTC) reply
    • For a useful list there should be links to Wikipedia articles. Not external links. The Banner  talk 09:56, 7 March 2015 (UTC) reply
      • Strong Keep: There are links to all the universities and their respective locations. In terms of links to the chapters, fraternity/greek letter organization chapters virtually never have independent Wikipedia articles, so I don't know why this would be different. Look at List of Zeta Psi chapters or List of Sigma Phi Epsilon chapters for reference. Upjav ( talk) 22:22, 11 March 2015 (UTC) reply
        • The main difference is that those articles give a list of chapters with the university where they are located. This article is a list of universities with some external links. The Banner  talk 00:13, 12 March 2015 (UTC) reply
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

  • Keep, the fact that the individual chapters don't have articles is not a valid deletion reason. Tavix |  Talk  21:34, 12 March 2015 (UTC) reply
    • Why? Making a list not mentioning the intended subject is not by far useful. The Banner  talk 22:18, 12 March 2015 (UTC) reply
The intended subject is "Phi Eta Sigma chapters." It does list all of the chapters of Phi Eta Sigma by including the university, location, and date founded. That is useful. Tavix |  Talk  23:14, 12 March 2015 (UTC) reply
Comment: The confusion may be that there's no specified chapter name unlike in, say, Zeta Psi, where each university is given a chapter name such as Omega or Omicron. According to the external link on the page to the fraternity's official website's list of chapters, it seems like they just refer to each chapter by its affiliated university (e.g. The University of Alabama Chapter), which would mean that this is complete as-is as far as I can tell.
