300: 279: 915:! thanks for pointing this out. Now that i think about it i did have a vague feeling the example messages were a bit too much in terms of detail so Ill probably remove it when i have the time. Regarding oversection I'm not entirely too sure how to deal with that. However, I do believe that the incident was notable enough to warrant addition to the overall article. Would you consider it better to integrate it into the history section or would simplifying the lonsi leak section be enough? 310: 627: 409: 384: 577: 455: 942:
charges" would be an incorrect description as there is a specific legal definition for assault (direct/indirect) under the Revised Penal Code of the Philippines. The QCPD's charges, per the sources, were for frustrated murder, physical injury, malicious mischief, and illegal possession of ammunition. Again, two separate and unrelated incidents do not warrant a subsection for the sake of having a subsection.
728:. A table will allow room where chapter references may point to portal pages, and allow comments on where a chapter came from, interesting facts or its outcome. A list of notable members is OK, if it is limited to those with their own valid wikipedia pages; if creating this, publish a list of rules for inclusion on the Talk page, which define who may be added. This will help avoid vanity listings. 248: 21: 976:
Oh i thought you were just referring to the lonsi leaks section i edited instead of also the hazing incidents. Ill take a look at them as well because i agree the state of frat and sorority articles are abysmal. Would you feel lonsi leaks warrants its own subsection as it is right now? regarding the

A neutral characterization of disputes requires presenting viewpoints with a consistently impartial tone; otherwise, articles end up as partisan commentaries even while presenting all relevant points of view. Even where a topic is presented in terms of facts rather than opinions, inappropriate tones

As for the sections, I suggest to just remove them entirely. First, there's an error in categorization (Rolando Perez was a fatality of a fraternity brawl, not a hazing incident) which would leave just two recorded incidents separated by decades, not enough to warrant a subsection. Second, "assault

Yes you can go ahead and remove those details. As for the rest of it (quotes from university officials, details about which office was involved where), just take it from the point of a reader not from the university: "Do I really care about reading all of this information?" While I do agree it

Taking a cursory look at the editing history of this article, it does seem that there has been a concerted effort from numerous single-purpose accounts (whose editing histories comprise this article, and only this article) to repurpose this article into what's essentially a brochure for the

847:: "short paragraphs and single sentences generally do not warrant their own subheading." A simple, chronological recounting of past incidents isn't sufficient content to warrant a subheading and honestly just feels like padding the section to make it bigger, wouldn't you agree? 479: 711:
Add a physical address. Add number of members, both lifetime and active. Add relevant symbolism to the infobox. Expand the History section. The infobox says there are two chapters... A chapter list should be placed into a table format within the body text, like this:
