Here are some tasks you can do:
- Requests: We should have an article on every Pharaoh & every nome in Ancient Egypt. Let's check to see if every important Egyptologist has an article. Surely, we can think of other articles we should have?
- Wikify: "Data sorting": 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.
- Verify: Fix / reclaim the Great Pyramid of Giza.
- Cleanup: To start with, most of the general history articles badly need attention, and at least some of the dynasty articles need work. Any other candidates?
- Expand: "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)
- Stubs: Anyone?
- Update: Any article with dated (obsolete) information.
- Infobox: Add an infobox or navbox to any article that doesn't have one yet.

[edit] Devour is not to destroy
It is a great mistake to see a devouring aspect as destructive. Does not the female "devour" or eat the semen (or phallus). Does this not create life?
So many feminine principles have been distorted by unhealthy minds through the ages. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.114.27.253 (talk) 15:50, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
