Gamma Phi Gamma

I believe that it Would be appropriate to contact the fraternity and get accurate information on it's founding and what they stand for among other things so that there isn't a single page saying that one of their pledges lost a nut and that's all. It not only reflects poorly on the fraternity and what they believe, but also on Wilmington College as a whole — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gamma Phi Gamma1212 (talkcontribs) 07:24, 24 January 2014 (UTC)

Wikipedia only uses information that is confirmed by reliable published sources. It does not accept what organisations say about themselves. If an organisation is notable only for an incident that reflects badly on it, so be it. However the Gamma Phi Gamma article probably ought to be deleted anyway. Maproom (talk) 09:03, 24 January 2014 (UTC)
Basically, the only information on the local fraternity chapter is obituaries noting things like 'graduated from Wilmington College, where he was a member of Gamma Phi Gamma' and the news articles covering the Pledge Loses Testicle In Frat Hazing Ritual At Wilmington College one event. The article started by Ktr101 likely will be deleted/redirected per WP:BLP1E. The current place for such information would be articles such as Wilmington College (Ohio) or Hazing in Greek letter organizations if it could be added in a way that maintains the context of the topic. -- Jreferee (talk) 14:34, 24 January 2014 (UTC)
Being the oldest local fraternity in America certainly is more than enough for notability, and I am more than willing to expand it, so I will try to do so later today. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 16:32, 24 January 2014 (UTC)
