Ancient Egypt Low‑importance

Low

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

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.

Men Salbo is a mistranslation/transliteration

Latest comment: 11 years ago4 comments3 people in discussion

It has been noted in an EEF discussion that there is no King Men Salbo. The title of the princess is "King's Daughter of His Body" (a very standard title). The Arabic translation of "of his body" is "min sulbuh" and this has been mistaken as the name of a King when this was further translated into Czech and then English. --AB (talk) 13:54, 6 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

An article about the confusion, including a more accurate rendering of the princess's name, has been published here excellent work everyone -Kiwipat (talk) 17:11, 6 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

thanks for adding this link. I was also reading the EEF discussion but was not sure how to refer to it. -- Udimu (talk) 18:55, 6 November 2012 (UTC)Reply
