Have changes from above simply been reverted without further discussion? There is a very glaring difference between how this page looks and how the Pi Alpha Phi page looks. The latter focuses primarily on mission statements and other seemingly non-neutral "facts". It seems excessively detailed, especially compared to how brief these same sections are here. Also about the controversial sections - on this page they take up almost half the article. On the Pi Alpha Phi page, there are zero incidents mentioned, which is odd considering the chapter list says half of all chapters are currently suspended.

Also, the following doesn't seem necessary: "Lambda Phi Epsilon has experienced the most hazing incidents among Asian-American fraternities, including three deaths. All deaths occurred in the last 13 years.[14] As of 2019, 18 chapters have been closed.[15] Hazing activities include (but are not limited to) knuckle push ups, consumption of large amounts of alcohol and miscellaneous condiments, tackle football, and calisthenics."

Do we include such descriptions for other fraternities that are, by far, the largest populations in their sectors? I don't doubt Lambda Phi Epsilon has the most hazing incidents brought to light - they have the largest membership. The hazing activities, even if proven in some of these specific incidents, is uncited and given its own focus. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:646:C900:50D0:F9FD:B0D2:4B1A:4766 (talk) 23:57, 29 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
