Delta Sigma Lambda is part of the Fraternities and Sororities WikiProject, an effort to build a comprehensive and detailed guide to Greek Life on the Wikipedia. This includes but is not limited to International social societies, local organizations, honor societies, and their members. If you would like to participate, you can edit the article attached to this page, visit the project page, where you can join the project, and/or contribute to the discussion.Fraternities and SororitiesWikipedia:WikiProject Fraternities and SororitiesTemplate:WikiProject Fraternities and SororitiesFraternities and Sororities articles
Infobox : The infobox may be incomplete. The template used for this entry, where you can see all available fields (--these things: "| = ''text'' ) is the fraternity-specific infobox. This, and other useful items are linked on the Fraternities and Sororities Project page.
Update : When calling out specific chapters in the body text, italicize the name of the chapter. Wikipedia practice is that the word "chapter" is not capitalized, while the name of the chapter is. The Theta Alpha section may be upgraded to its own page, if more information is available.
Wikify : Upload and add a crest to the infobox, to replace the badge, and place the badge PNG file at the Member Badge field in the infobox. Confirm the color swatches and flower aren't just local to the new Purdue chapter (at that time). Add relevant symbolism to the infobox. The chapter lists for both Delta Sigma Lambda and Theta Alpha follow this model: Omega Tau Sigma or Sigma Delta Rho (to reference two unrelated examples). A chapter list should include dates of chartering. Indicate if a chapter is active by bolding its name, or if inactive by using italics. A table will allow room where chapter references may point to portal pages, and allow comments on where a chapter came from, interesting facts and where it went (to Theta Chi, or elsewhere).

There is a discrepancy between Baird's 20th ed (printed) and the online Baird's Archive, where the chapter names, order and locations have been updated.
Where the print version says that there were thirteen chapters, the archive now says twelve, which I think must be the correct number. A yearbook search may further clarify. Thus of the 12 known chapters, two came from the merger with Theta Alpha, and ten were original to Delta Sigma Lambda. The remaining three, recently dormant Theta Alpha chapters were not given name designations within Delta Sigma Lambda in the 1933 merger. Jax MN (talk) 14:29, 29 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
