Low

This article has been rated as Low-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.

Hi! I was looking through the page and I noticed there were no citations for Janet’s education or where she was born. I think this would be good to include. If there are more sources, this could be elaborated to explain more of her background. Regarding the publication listed on the page, more in depth information could be added to give insight on what has been worked on since this is something she is well known for. A general summary or more resources exploring this topic could be included to fulfill this. —Bmdbt (talk) 16:51, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I will be moving in some information that expands upon Janet's excavations and her personal life that primarily deals with Margaret Benson. Bmdbt (talk) 15:53, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
