Who was Ra-Maat-Neb? I assume this name is a version Nebmaatre or Nubmaatre, which would make him either Amenhotep III or Ramses VI (see Conventional Egyptian chronology). Bastie 03:18, 9 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

I uploaded the image, but I don't know who "Ra-Maat-Neb" is supposed to be. His hieroglyph is included in the image, which is labelled as having been copied from Lepsius, but more than that I don't know. He is labelled as "builder of pyramid 17", so is unlikely to be either of your suggestions. Paul B 10:11, 9 October 2005 (UTC)Reply
Well it's a mere five years later, but now I have the answer. It's Nebmaatre I on Meroe pyramid 17. Paul B (talk) 11:23, 31 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Recommend deletion of unsourced statement of opinion edit

Following the departure of Fauset and Du Bois, the influence of The Crisis declined. The magazine was unable to sustain the high literary standards it had achieved under Fauset, but it continued to have a powerful political voice.

These sentences require a source or should be deleted. Thank you. Maryishimotomorris (talk) 20:09, 24 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

Good catch; you're right that that's almost certainly wrong. They're trying to talk about the change in focus to concentrate more exclusively on politics, but it's expressed so as to be false. Anyway, I put a book in the further reading section that will be useful to fill out the history from between when Du Bois left and now.— alf laylah wa laylah (talk) 20:58, 24 February 2014 (UTC)Reply
