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.

Highly Ambiguous[edit]

In googling to try to clean this up, I found no less than three different "Cairo agreements":

The secret agreement of 1969 (the subject of the article)
The 1994 Cairo Agreement on the Gaza Strip and the Jericho Area (follow-on to the Oslo Accords)
The Cairo Agreement of 1994 on population and development

Disputed[edit]

This article may document a fringe conspiracy-theory. The Lebanese Civil War articles tend to heat up tempers and encourage sectarian bias. However, this particular article documents an event or agreement which probably (realistically) never occurred. Furthermore, the article presents a strong anti-Palestinian bias. The article needs some clean-up, and I intend to help. Nimur 13:15, 6 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The reality of the agreement is of very dubious historic validity, but it gets brought up by reliable sources though in the same breath as saying it is a coin toss as to whether it was a hoax. I'm not sure the history of its use in propaganda, but I see a paper trail. I'm just going to the change the tag to clean-up. -- Kendrick7 18:39, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Effects[edit]

The agreement didn't "cause" the Israeli invasions of Lebanon in any direct or simple way, but it did declare Lebanese national territory to be an Israeli-Palestinian open free-fire zone, with dire consequences for the stability of Lebanon. AnonMoos 17:17, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
