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.

I'm sure that it was either Discovery or National Geographic that had the theory that after Hephaestion's death, Alexander overdosed on toxic antidepressants. Anyone else heard this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.17.134.7 (talk) 03:36, 15 December 2011 (UTC)Reply
I too saw this documentary. It was believed to have been from Hellebore poisoning. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.61.24.34 (talk) 21:16, 29 March 2012 (UTC) No one Killed Jessica is based on true storyReply

It is a common belief that Alexander, upon realizing that he was dying, decided to leave his empire "to the strongest". I have no idea if this has any basis in fact, but the article should probably mention it at least to confirm or deny it. Nolandda (talk) 23:21, 3 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

Why there is no mention of prophecy of Calanus, a Hindu Fakir, who had burnt himself alive on pyre - with words his final words to Alexander - We shall meet in Babylon. Thus forecasting death of Alexander the Great. [1]Jethwarp (talk) 16:29, 17 March 2012 (UTC) thats a fucking lie
