Ancient Egypt Mid‑importance

Mid

This article has been rated as Mid-importance on the project's importance scale.

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.

If Menkauhor Kaiu was a son of Reptynub's husband, then she was likely his mother.

Considering that Menkauhor's parents are unknown that is really a bit of a stretch and even if he was a son of the previous king then there is always a possibility of other wives. Speculation like that does not belong in the article. Unless you can come up with a book and/or article where this is specifically stated as a theory. Without a source it would be original research which is not appropriate.--AnnekeBart (talk) 13:53, 27 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Yes, there is always possibility that Nyuserra's other wife - whose name's unknown - could be Menkauhor's mother. But I wrote in the article "if he was Nyuserre's son" and "possibly". - Mychele

The statement still needs a source. Otherwise it's original research and should be removed. --AnnekeBart (talk) 12:35, 28 February 2011 (UTC)Reply
