| WikiProject Ancient Egypt to-do list: |
|
Here are some tasks you can do:
- Article requests: We should have an article on every pharaoh and every nome (law) in ancient Egypt. Let's check to see whether every important Egyptologist has an article. Surely, we can think of other articles that we should have.
- Cleanup: To begin, most of the general-history, and at least some of the dynasty, articles badly need work. Are there any other candidates?
- Expand: "Standardize the Chronology": This is a boring task, but the benefit of doing it is that you can set the dates! Why say Khufu lived between 2589 and 2566 BCE? As long as you keep the length of his reign correct, or cite a respected source, you can date it 2590-2567 BCE or 2585-2563 BCE.
- Infobox: Add an infobox or navbox to any article that doesn't have one yet.
- Stubs: Anyone?
- Update: Any article with dated (obsolete) information.
- Verify: Fix / reclaim the Great Pyramid of Giza.
- Wikify: "Data sorting": Take one of the standard authorities of history or culture -- the writings of Herotodus, the Elder Pliny, J. H. Breasted, or Kenneth Kitchen -- and see whether you can smoothly merge quotations or information into relevant articles. This is probably a good exercise for someone who owns one of those impressive texts yet can't access a research library.

removed as irrelevant or lacking NPOV:
tragically often the implements have been transported thousands of miles from their homeland, a legacy of colonialism and racism among other things.

Just wanted to take a moment and point out that the adze has possibly the coolest name of all manual labour implements, save possibly for 'mattock'. ((Assuming you count 'pneumatic drill' as a machine tool.)) Oceanhahn 21:37, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
