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.

Name of this article

I just made a bad link here from Registrar. "Hall of records" is a generic term; there thousands of them. This is like linking Main Street to Main Street (novel). — Randall Bart 01:07, 8 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Concur, I've put a notice up on the Great Sphynx talk page suggesting people there with appropriate expertise come over to fix this article.Simonm223 (talk) 13:45, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Rename "Hall of Records (myth)"

Suggest retitling article to the above asap.Rep07 (talk) 20:00, 18 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Removed the bit on Edgar cayce

unnecessary pseudoscience woo. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Idxcue (talk • contribs) 04:02, 17 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

"Unnecessary pseudoscience woo" is not a valid reason for deletion. Edgar Cayce predicted the discovery, and his little group he founded has found it. (Zahi Hawass is connected to that group.) You do not get to run around deleting important information from articles just because it doesn't fit with your Atheist picture of the universe. That is a direct violation of wikipedia guidelines. Someone who knows more about what Edgar Cayce said on it better fix the damage this fanatic did to the article. Newsflash, Fanatic! You choosing not to believe in psychics doesn't magic us into not existing!

Hawass

Hawass found entrance to a tunnel inside the sphinx's right paw. Below the sphinx is a chamber with a large sracophagus of Ra. A tunnel leads away from this chamber. The special ended before revealing what the tunnel leads to, and this has been covered up. Hawass works for the group established by Edgar Cayce. He found the Hall of Records, and they covered it up. They are breaking the intentions of their group from Edgar Cayce, hoarding this treasure and its information, when they are supposed to inform people. Further, they are now explicitly about profit... Anyways, the Hall of Record is most likely where that tunnel goes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.22.251.138 (talk) 18:15, 26 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If anyone is interested in trying to find it anywhere (Good luck on that one! They want this as silent as the Ra sarcophagus!), it played on WB 61, a long time ago. It played in the middle of the day. It was very uncharacteristic for such a thing to be on that channel, but there it was. I think they had it on that channel and time slot maybe to inspire kids into archeology and history.
