There are citations and descriptions of other texts within the body of the text that probably should be given as footnotes. 86.185.138.10 (talk) 01:32, 17 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

The recently created page Introduction to The Amarna Period: Amarna for Amateurs should be merged with this page as the current status of that page appears to violate WP:NOTGUIDE. Everymorning talk to me 21:49, 5 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

  • Support I'd prefer it were deleted as there are few in-line citations but I understand some oppose outright deletion. Chris Troutman (talk) 22:04, 5 December 2014 (UTC)Reply
  • Delete or merge. I pretty much agree with Chris Troutman. It irks me when people create this sort of pointlessly redundant article. "Introduction to The Amarna Period: Amarna for Amateurs" is not an intuitive title and therefore not a good candidate for a redirect, but once something's created it's rarely politically possible to delete.

Well, User:NawlinWiki just deleted it, so I guess it is possible some of the time. I suppose we close the discussion? A. Parrot (talk) 22:23, 5 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

It's "Amarna Period" in the title but "Amarna period" throughout the article. —Tamfang (talk) 20:50, 6 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

Wikipedia also has an entry titled "The Armana Era"

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amarna_Era. The subject seems to be the same 82.15.39.58 (talk) 17:50, 11 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

" It was believed that Smenkhkare was a male guise of Nefertiti. However, it is accepted that Smenkhkare was a male."

They can't both be correct. 109.144.209.159 (talk) 01:02, 1 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Powerful Egyptians were presumed male when the names and depictions are gender-ambiguous. There are people accepted by scholars as male when it's not clear. They're really accepted, but it's really not clear. The copy could use some work I guess.
