Initial request

 * Where is the issue taking place?
 * In the first paragraph of the Alpha Phi Alpha article.


 * Who's involved?
 * user Bobbydoop and other editors who are in disagreement with bobbydoop.


 * What's going on?
 * The issue is whether to state the Fratenity is the First College Fraternity or the Second oldest Fraternity. the official site for the fraternity states First Intercollegiate, however; bobbydoop thinks it relevant that readers know it's the second.  Most editors disagree with this editor.


 * ''What would you like to change about that?
 * We'd like to consider that the fraternity is the final authority on how it should be described since there is nothing false that's it is the First college fraternity for african american men. Editor Bobbydoop had provided a reference to this exact statement but has removed it once it was brought to his intention.


 * If you'd prefer we work discreetly, how can we reach you?
