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.

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: Not moved – There's a plausible suggestion, but nothing supported after the relisting. Start over if you want, with an actual proposal. (non-admin closure) Dicklyon (talk) 04:45, 2 August 2019 (UTC)Reply

– Three 14th-century people being badly disambiguated with a job title that didn't exist in their country at the time. I'm not certain of what the more correct terminology would be, because all three stake their notability claims much more on their being mentioned in the Amarna letters, while none actually state or source anything whatsoever about political offices they may have held beyond the invocation of the word "mayor" itself — but whatever their role or title actually was, "mayor" definitely is not it, because "mayors" did not exist in the Middle East in the 14th century.

Relisting note since no targets have been specified, I have relisted this for further discussion. --DannyS712 (talk) 21:50, 23 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
In lieu of a better suggestion, how about just droppng "mayor" from the title and disambiguating by location? PC78 (talk) 23:21, 23 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

Move to Tagi of Ginti, Zimredda of Lachish and Zimredda of Sidon. Srnec (talk) 03:42, 29 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

– Best to avoid the anachronistic "mayor". It is occasionally used, but so is king. The proposed titles are also used and leave the question of these guys' status for the articles to discuss. Srnec (talk) 01:52, 11 August 2019 (UTC)--Relisting. TheSandDoctor ^Talk 03:13, 19 August 2019 (UTC)Reply

Support per nom, seems reasonable. PC78 (talk) 10:31, 11 August 2019 (UTC)Reply
