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.

Slavery

"The Amratians possessed slaves, and constructed rowboats of bundled papyrus in which they could sail the Nile.[5]" I have a few problems with this statement:

1. The definition of 'slavery' - chattle slavery or the bondage and serfdom that most people lived under until the end of the Middle Ages? 2. The age of the reference - Homer Smith's Man And His Gods is from 1952. A 68 year old source - certainly people have published on the issue more recently? 3. Man And His Gods is notorious for not having any footnotes.

In other words, Homer Smith doesn't give a reference. 83.84.100.133 ( talk) 15:42, 12 April 2020 (UTC) reply

Wrong link

The link to El Amra is a town in northern Algeria. I think El-Amrah might be more correct. -- Finn Bjørklid ( talk) 19:12, 2 March 2014 (UTC) reply
