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.

This page is largely a duplicate of Giza pyramid complex and does not offer new information, the pyramid complex and the plateau are the same location sharing more or less the same borders. If the article were about the entire plateau, then another page, Memphite Necropolis covers it. My suggestion is that any extra information be merged into either of the two pages and this one be deleted. Ypedia1 (talk) 12:23, 21 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Oppose merge - I change my mind because I see this article is considered a "high" in importance. --The Eloquent Peasant (talk) 00:37, 27 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
