Low

This article has been rated as Low-importance on the project's importance scale.

This article is supported by Egyptian religion work group (assessed as Low-importance).

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.

"Dog's Leg shape?"

Latest comment: 13 days ago2 comments2 people in discussion

I see the description of the "dog's leg" shape. However, I do not see that description in the sources used. Is this information sourced anywhere? If not, I will remove the somewhat awkward wording there.

Consulting Reeves & Wilkinson's Complete Valley of the Kings, they refer to the architectural style as "bent axis" (p.25). Neither of the nearest cited sources (Theban Mapping Project or Narmer.pl) mention the tomb's axis. I will add a citation : ) Merytat3n (talk) 05:42, 1 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
