[edit] Chi Delta

This is page of a chapter of the Psi Upsilon Fraternity. There are about 2 other chapters of the same fraternity that have individual articles but I'm putting this one up because I'm not sure how the voting will turn out. I'm putting this up for VfD because there's really not much substance to this article. It would be best to link the chapter website from from the Psi Upsilon article instead of having each individual chapter having a seperate article and thus opening the possibilty of having a "personal" websites of chapters from any fraternity within an encyclopedia. Having one article of a national fraternity is enough. We don't need articles of every individual chapter. IMO Dysepsion 00:59, 18 August 2005 (UTC)

• Merge with Psi Upsilon. This is NN for a separate entry. --Lomedae 01:26, August 18, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete Are individual chapters of any encyclopediac interest? Celcius 02:11, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
• Merge all individual fraternity chapters with their fraternity. Bear in mind that there are probably lots of fraternities with a "chi delta" chapter. -- BD2412 ^talk 01:33, August 18, 2005 (UTC)
  • Sorry, I skipped a step in my thinking. Move content of this article to fraternity article. Redirect Chi Delta Chapter of Psi Upsilon to that article. Delete this article. -- BD2412 ^talk 17:55, August 18, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete as nonnotable, but failing that Merge per BD2412, who hits the nail on the head. If this was to stay a separate article, it would need to be renamed "Chi Delta Chapter of Psi Upsilon" or somesuch. Nandesuka 03:04, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete per Nandesuka, which is to say that a Merge/Redirect per BD2412 causes problems with the generic "Chi Delta" title common to chapters of other fraternities. --Alan Au 03:33, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, do NOT merge (Merging, as I understand it involves a redirect?) as there is a sorority called "Chi Delta," and also numerous chapters of other houses throughout the nation that are the Chi Delta chapter of their house. JDoorjam 14:36, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete as per JDoorjam. In general individual chapters of Fraternities or sororities or other social orginazitions are not notable, unless there is specific reason to the copntrary in a particular case. Note this VfD as a precedant for future such cases. DES ^(talk) 00:53, 19 August 2005 (UTC)
• What BD2412 and Nandesuka said. -Splash 02:19, 19 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete , but only due to lack of content. Some Chapter web pages have quite a bit of information. See Delta chapter of Alpha Phi Omega or Beta Rho chapter of Alpha Phi Omega or Mu Alpha chapter of Alpha Phi Omega. Links from the National Fraternity wikipage to the web pages of all of the individual chapters may not be reasonable. Alpha Phi Omega has 350 active chapters and over 250 have local web pages. Restricting links from the National Fraternity wiki page to only those chapters who have Wikipages seems more reasonable. Naraht 15:05, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Nothing to prevent those chapter links from being split off, say, into List of Beta Theta Pi chapters. Psi U incidentally is a very small national.-choster 19:26, 22 August 2005 (UTC)
    • Said list for Alpha Phi Omega would hit the 32K limit... Naraht 01:35, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete per JDoorjam. -choster 19:26, 22 August 2005 (UTC)
