The external link(s) you added or changed (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaUwlJEE3Vxsw0eIG15xBiw) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. music or video) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy, as well as other parts of our external links guideline. If the information you linked to is indeed in violation of copyright, then such information should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file, or consider linking to the original. If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link.

 * Regarding that addition to the PSK notable brothers page. In the vast majority of cases, inclusion in these Wikipedia links of notable alumni requires that the person have a Wikipedia page written about them, first.  Thus, when the name is added to the fraternity alumni page, it provides a good link to a longer article about the person.


 * Some of the sororities have fussed over this, often adding persons with less intrinsic notability than pioneers of old, or additions like the many legitimate fraternity alumni. Thus, for notable sorority members we see women who have been Miss USA contestants, or (yes), various YouTube or TicTok influencers, or bloggers, or people chiefly famous for being famous.  Sigh. Most editors here will delete these, if pressed, as not really noteworthy.  It's not personal.  But Wikipedia long ago determined it should not be used as a tool to build one's own personal brand.
