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 bull is represented by "Mnewer". I point this fact and think of the pronunciation as 'manure'. 184.76.53.217 (talk) 09:10, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
if we look at jacob bryant, he told us that this bull worshipped in thebas, was cold the white gold, said that plutarch and porfyrir where wrong, told us this wrong is from the bLack bull of Hermonthis, who s name is Basis o bacchis, real name bash, who is to sun of temple apollo. And said from character, + a little bir diffrent, its silver, but in tebas told us the white gold, and this worshipped in heliopolis, and apis in menphis, but they two are national worshipped. Hieroglyphics like Mne, with a globe in the head. Israelities followed this and no Apis. Where they learn the golden calf. Please have a look jacob bryant, He have been in tebas and made a good work, with full of information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 185.36.0.36 (talk) 03:55, 15 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
