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.

Shouldnt
Nuit be merged with this article to provide credibile evidence of Nuit existing outside of Thelema? I'm gonna suggest it.

No, it most definitely should not. The article
Nuit is strictly about the historical Egyptian deity. It's content should not be replicated here, as it is only a mouse-click away. -

Doesnt look like anyone is doing anything with it. I'd like to add to Thelema articles as much as I can, and the perspectives outside Thelema need to be added...you seem to have a particular attitude about this.

Please see the previous discussion of the issue on
Talk:Nuit. You should always include the editors of both pages in your discussion if you want to merge. Clearly you didn't intend to include editors of the
Nuit article if you didn't take the time to look at the discussion on the talk page of that article, which would show you that there is no support for a merged article, that they were, in fact, intentionally separated. -

Seeing as how both of them are stubs, I don't see how it came to this. Just because there is a difference of opinion and terminology means less to me. Also, I didn't include the other page's editors, because I wanted to bring it up here first. Please lower your tone. There was not much of a discussion on the matter (on the other page). Plus neither articles are citing sources.

Simple. The field of Egyptology does not include Thelema. Nuit is the subject of both fields, but the primary article is about an historical Egyptian deity. It is typical to seperate articles which belong to different fields - that is why there are many disambiguation pages on WP. In this case, the seperation and dabs happen to have been properly done. Those who are interested in both topics have only one mouse click to get to the related article, regardless of which article they encounter first. Why mess with it? -

Seeing as how Crowleys usage is that of Egyptian, I think any evidence that it wasnt all made up, or was made up should be added to the article. I'm no longer going to attempt to merge, but this needs citations and verifiabliity. Readers may wish to know if this exists, or else it exists only in Crowleys head. Please see the talk page for Stele of Revealing as well. I've been asking for evidence of anything pretaining to Thelema, outside of Thelema, as to not make it pro-crowley, or pro-thelema.

I read somewhere that this may be the origin for the Xenu of $cientology. Does anyone learned in this have any idea what this could possibly mean within the story (i.e. Humanity was cast down to Earth because of some cosmic accident that forced the United Stars to take the proceedings it did, perhapse they became astrologers)?
afggadfg to you too. Thanks, but I don't really see the relevance of this to the article.
