| 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: I 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)

Egyptian Dynasty list [edit]
I have added a Graeco-Roman Period; for justification see Template talk:Late Egyptian Dynasty list —Nefertum17 08:32, 24 Jan 2005 (UTC)
I am moving the Twenty-first dynasty from the New Kingdom to the Third Intermediate Period where it belongs. This is justified on the basis of almost any current book on the topic. I have also reorganised the Middle Kingdom to reflect a fairly strong scholarly consensus, but also to use the chronology of Shaw (ed.) The Oxford History of Ancient Egypt —Nefertum17 10:57, 26 Jan 2005 (UTC)
