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 decision to move this page was very incorrect. The material on this page is about Ahhotep I, Ahmose's mother. Ahhotep II is a later queen. Furthermore, there's another ahhotep queen page, somthing a little mispelled, which should be merged or deleted, because it's about this queen as well. Thanatosimii 13:22, 19 August 2006 (UTC)Reply
I moved this page from Ahhotep II to Ahhotep I, because Grimal and Shaw both say that this queen is Ahhotep I. Furthermore, I suggest that the redundant page Aahhotep I be merged into this page, because they are clearly about the same person and Ahhotep I is the more common (and more correct) form of the name.

The Aegaean wouldn't be called "Yawan" until the Ionians started colonizing in about 900BC, therefore, the Ancient Egyptians wouldn't have called them "Yawan." The Aegaean Sea was known as the "The Great Green (Sea)", and the Greek mainland, or at least part of it, was probably "Tanaju," but was general refered to as just "The Islands Beyond the Sea." Even this article states that in one epithets of the Queen. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 170.173.0.16 (talk) 00:10, 26 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
