[edit] Famous APDs?
I know that Dr. Phil DiStefano is an alumnus, and he is the chancellor of the University of Colorado. Do you guys know of any?
[edit] Cleanup
The article if rife with deadlinks and non-sourced areas. Needs a cleanup pretty badly. Jmlk17 23:02, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Pledging / other stuff
I don't understand why people keep deleting things out of this article. There are meaningful and truthful contributions that are being mad e to this page weekly that are being reset. Many brothers are putting time into this page, and laymen are diluting their efforts. When editing or refining this article, please explain your reason and justification for doing so. Let's make this a habit.
- What exactly are you referring to? Things are often deleted because they either make no sense, or are obvious vandalism or blatant lies. Jmlk17 22:49, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
- After looking over the page history, I don't see any wrong doing on the part of those who are reverting vandalism. A lot of the work the so-called "laymen" are doing is standardizing the content of the article and keeping it pure of vandalism. Samwisep86 23:19, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for the search Sam :). Jmlk17 23:20, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

Please don't get defensive. Adjusting the content of the "lies" or what have you is completely subjective. Do you know the history of APD? I recently added a sentence or two about how apd has kept its pleding practices, unlike many other nationals. It was deleted a few days later...Why? Probably someone didn't know their facts. Citing fraternity history is rough business; not many written sources can be cited (if any). I will try to get APD's National Historian to clean up this page. Before anyone wants to "clean up" or do anything to this page, please just post it first and let it sit for a few days!
Thanks
How about this, I am a national Officer for APD, Vice President for Undergraduate Affiars, I am currently changing the page to the best of my abilities, so how bout if you dont hold any kind of position, dont touch it...thanx agian, Fraternally, Kola —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mrapd26 (talk • contribs) 17:28, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
vandalism is always going to happen. luckily, we have brothers like myself who will constantly keep checking the page to make sure no one will try to mock our fraternity. there would be no need to add information about our fraternity to the page, the brothers will do that. all i ask that you do is if you see any forms of vandalism on the page, that you please remove it immediately. thank you. jason —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.160.239.44 (talk) 06:05, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Ratings and Importance
I have changed the class and importance of the APD article due to the recent improvements to the article and APD's membership in the NIC. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.15.105.49 (talk) 00:05, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:APDBROTHERCREST.jpg
Image:APDBROTHERCREST.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
