Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Djedptahiufankh
This was tagged for a speedy delete, but I don't think it falls into that category - there does seem to some information elsewhere on the web about this person. I suspect there is so little known about Djedptahiufankh that the poor fellow only merits a footnote on some other page. I've no opinion one way or the other, so I'll leave it up to others to decide. (I.e. don't take this as a vote for or against deletion.) Finbarr Saunders 21:32, 28 August 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, looks like a typing test but does appear to be a real mummy [1]. Kappa 21:55, 28 August 2005 (UTC)
- Delete or (if a suitable place can be found) merge. Apparently it's about a real person, but considering that the name gets 64 Google hits (compare 674 for Ahmose-Nefertari) and half of them appear to be stuff like "list of ancient Egyptian male names," I seriously doubt he's notable enough to warrant his own article. Would probably be fine as a short section inside some bigger article on ancient Egypt, but I'm not sure which. Maybe a section on whatever "Prophet of Amun" means in the Amun article? Something like List of mummies? List of slightly important people in ancient Egyptian history? I dunno, man. Penelope D 22:11, 28 August 2005 (UTC)
- Keep Djedptahiufankh did truly exist and this person is a she, by the Way. There are also several web sites which mention her discovery and she is also mentioned in [[Kenneth Kitchen]'s book, The Third Intermediate Period in Egypt. More importantly, her tomb was found intact and many treasures and dated bandages were found on her body. She was a very important person in her time and merits some mention on Wikipedia. Her discovery was a rare event in a country where Mummy's were almost often robbed or destroyed. Finally, this web site confirms the details of her career: [[2]]
- Strong Keep-At first I didnt think it was a real person, but I was mistaked. The fact that the mummy and burial site is well preseved mkaes it more than notable enough in my opinion. --Gpyoung talk 23:03, 28 August 2005 (UTC)
