Help with editing[edit]

I've done what I can in editing it but I would really appreciate some help on. I don't really know about making wiki article, I more or less just do it with my free time, so if someone could help organize and clean it up it would really be helpful. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.189.9.118 (talk) 22:31, 17 March 2007 (UTC).[reply]

RJT011000 - Need help identifying what exactly the tags are referring to. I do not think thats listed anywhere. August 2007

RJT011000 - Have made many modifications to Wiki up the ODPHI page. WIKI editor removed the entities, and after careful review of Alpha Phi Alpha featured wiki page, I agree that it may not be appropriate to have it in this context. - 8:42 am CST September 21, 2007

RJT011000 - Why remove the references section? - 7:20 am CST November 20, 2007 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rjt011000 (talkcontribs) 13:20, 20 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

RJT011000 - Current state of ODPHI wiki per Justin1978:

re: Omega Delta Phi The tone and peacock aspects that immediately jump out are:

The article reads like the group is puffing itself up (hence the peacock). Most of the tone and peacock things are one in the asme. "began as the brainchild" - this should be "Omega Delta Phi was initially founded by ...." or something along those lines. "seven Men of Vision" - you can cite this all you want, but that doesn't change the fact that it's not a NPOV statement. having a presence on YouTube isn't notable, and the inclusion of "unofficial" videos is crossing into individual chapters using it as a recruitment tool. all of the sources are either directly from the organization (both collegiate and alumni) or youtube. The ones that are not from those two sources are from sites that the bio is submitted by the organization itself (the nclr.org ref, for example). All in all, it boils down this: Wikipedia is not a rush flyer, and the article should be about a brief history of the org, some information on it's operating structure and some neutral, third-party references.
