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.

You're right -- that doesn't make sense. Turns out it was added in an edit going back to 15 June 2006, and it didn't make any sense then either (it's not like something was deleted later that gave that line some sense.) Am pretty sure the intended meaning in this case is "For believers" (likely of a certain cult). Changing... Captmondo 20:58, 1 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Whoever named this article "stub" doesn't know anything about "menat". Everything is very well explained: the origin and the necklace itself. The only criticism you may utter should be that there isn't a photo of a corresponding necklace. Perhaps someone can find it in a museum. --92.77.14.236 (talk) 09:05, 8 March 2011 (UTC)Reply
