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]

Nonsense. She is depicted as a child of 5-6 years old nearly 12 years after the death OF Amenhotep III !!! Use some common sense. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.201.140.130 (talk) 20:47, 10 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

When it comes to Egyptology common sense won't do. The relative sizes of Beketaten and her mother are an indication of their relative importance, not of her age. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 146.90.157.115 (talk) 13:30, 9 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Proposal to Delete the Reference to the Scarab Book Series as Irrelevant[edit]

I would like to propose a deletion of the mention of Max Overton's book series. It's a self-published series of little cultural relevance and it looks like the mention of the series was added in by the author himself on 1 November 2012‎. Having it here does not do much except provide free publicity to the series and its author. 20:36, 28 January 2021 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by ForWhomTheSunShines (talk • contribs)
