Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Omicron-Epsilon

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

What exactly detirmines if a chapter is "non-notable"? This article is a work in progress.

If the article is up for deletion due to an issue of vanity, I'd be more than willing to re-write or invite a more unbiased author to come in and edit portions.

As far as noteability, it truly depends on who you ask. Clearly, within the chapter, it is a very noteworthy article, and I understand that is a concern. On the Adelphi campus, once more, it is a noteworthy article. The things that have been accomplished by Kappa Sigma at Adelphi University have helped change the face of Greek life on the campus. In an effort to seem less vain, I've significantly toned down the accomplishments of the chapter and the way that we as individuals and an organization have impacted many different aspects at AU.

If the population of a small university like Adelphi isn't enough to qualify the article as noteworthy, then what about the Order of the Kappa Sigma Fraternity? As a new chapter, it's understood that we don't have the most famous alumni yet, but the few that we have turned out have been published since graduation. One, as an Associate Producer, has his own featured segment on the MSGnetwork website and has been hired as a regular call in guest on a podcast under the guise of the Knuckler. Another of our alumni is a part of Newsday's Review Crew and is now regularly published in the pages of Newsday, as well as on their website. That same alumni has been offered positions higher in the fraternal world as well.

An undergraduate member of the chapter has been hired as Kappa Sigma's only intern in charge of fundraising for the new headquarters. He's been placed at the helm of the Jackson's Men campaign, and has made significant strides this summer in getting the new Headquarters built since the old was lost in a court case (reference the Kappa Sigma Wikipedia page for more information.) If his contributions to the national organization, which effects over 250,000 men aren't enough for some small recognition, then I'm confused as to what is.

Primarily, this Wikipedia page is for use as a historical document. As the chapter grows, both in size and in noteriety, this article will as well. I guaruntee that, given a short amount of time, this article will expand to include information affecting a larger constituancy, that even Wikipedians will look at as impressive.
