WikiProject Ancient Egypt to-do list:

Needed articles.

We should have an article on every pyramid and every nome in Ancient Egypt. I'm sure the rest of us can think of other articles we should have.

Cleanup.

To start with, most of the general history articles badly need attention. And I'm told that at least some of the dynasty articles need work. Any other candidates?

Standardize the Chronology.

A boring task, but the benefit of doing it is that you can set the dates !(e.g., why say Khufu lived 2589-2566? As long as you keep the length of his reign correct, or cite a respected source, you can date it 2590-2567 or 2585-2563)

Stub sorting

Anyone? I consider this probably the most unimportant of tasks on Wikipedia, but if you believe it needs to be done . . .

Data sorting.

This is a project I'd like to take on some day, & could be applied to more of Wikipedia than just Ancient Egypt. Take one of the standard authorities of history or culture -- Herotodus, the Elder Pliny, the writings of Breasted or Kenneth Kitchen, & see if you can't smoothly merge quotations or information into relevant articles. Probably a good exercise for someone who owns one of those impressive texts, yet can't get access to a research library.

Untitled[edit]

Cleopatra was the "younger twin"? I've always thought that twins have the same age...--Vermondo 23:27, 1 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Heh, well they don't exactly come out side-by-side... — Laura Scudder ☎ 03:38, 2 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There's no documentation of which was born first (though it seems that a common assumption/misconception is that the male of a set of boy-girl twins is always born first). Either way, I changed it.204.10.247.1 (talk) 00:47, 9 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

She is born 40 BC, marries around 20 BC and gets her children twenty years and more later at an age of 40 plus? The sources for these dates need checking. Highly unusual and also unlikely. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.37.181.81 (talk) 22:05, 13 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Death date?[edit]

It is written that Cleopatra Selene II survived to adulthood, married, had children, died and was buried in a tomb that still exists (at least in part). Can any of the experts in this area of history provide an estimated year of death for her? I don't see one. (71.22.47.232 (talk) 20:57, 11 July 2010 (UTC))[reply]

Identity of her daughter[edit]

The name of her daughter has been suggested as Drusilla, but sources state that the information is open to interpretation. See Selen for instance. Given the apparent competing theories I personally think that should be reflected in the article. --AnnekeBart (talk) 03:41, 3 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Her brothers[edit]

The statement in this article that Alexander Helios and Ptolemy Philadelphos were dead at the time of this Cleopatra's marriage are the opposite of the statement in the Alexander Helios article, which says that they were alive. Since the Alexander Helios article cites a source (Cassius Dio) and this one doesn't, I think this is the entry that should be amended to reconcile the two. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pugnaciousignatius (talk • contribs) 20:03, 9 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
