| 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.
Expand Ancient Egyptian philosophy
- 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.

Hi Wikiproject members: Ihf cruised on to the portal to find information on "Egyptians as presented in the Bible" (ideally correlated with research), but I didn't find anything as such. I'm possibly just using the wrong search terms, but on the off-chance this isn't covered, I'd like to recommend it as an article topic. Cheers Manning (talk) 05:23, 8 March 2013 (UTC)

Cleanup [edit]
This article needs cleanup...badly. Right now the start is good, but after a few sections it gets bad again. Someone just needs to totally redo this. It has potential, just is in bad shape right now. Steve 03:54, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
I'll say. What on Earth does 'at the fish network' mean?! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.214.111.105 (talk) 05:39, August 28, 2007 (UTC)
With the assistance of C.Rushing, scholar and German/English translator, I plan on, and have begun to, update the translations, and add interwiki and intrawiki linking. I finally became fed-up with it while trying to research hieroglyphs for one of my art projects! Skylles (talk) 23:51, 19 March 2OO8(UTC)
Progress [edit]
I have created a template to simplify/standardize the layout. I have converted (but not check or translated) the following sections, and will do the others when I can - A,B,C,D (already completed by others), H, K, L, P, Q, X, Y, Z, AA. I fixed an odd translation for Cusae and then added a few glyphs to AA that were in the English article and not in the German one. Once this is done and the English article is checked, then we can switch it over (hurrah) Markh (talk) 23:14, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
- Nearly done W and R. I think this page is now massive, so it should be split up into its sections. Markh (talk) 09:30, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
