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 Misplaced Pages, 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 Misplaced Pages 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.

Are you referring to File:CairoEgMuseumTaaMaskMostlyPhotographed.jpg? That image has been on Common for eight years and was uploaded as the submitter's own work, so I'm somewhat dubious that it's a copyright violation. What's your evidence for the claim? A.

Because it is in the public domain it may have just been copied off of wikipedia and put on other websites. Sorry for the mis-interpretation. But I did find it on multiple websites using Google Image Search. It again could just be a mirror website. MersmanD (talk) 11:23, 15 September 2024 (UTC)
