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.

Quality

So long as the list does not tell us what titles these governors held, and does not indicate the actual place Egypt held in the structure of the Empire, at different times, and gets most of its links wrong (or just red), it's not of much use to anybody.

A number of first-century praefecti, with articles and blue letters to their names remain in red, e. Flaccus, Tiberius Julius Alexander...Clive sweeting (talk) 16:19, 3 July 2014 (UTC) Clive Sweeting 3 July 2014[reply]

Source?

So whence comes this list of names? I came here from Sossianus Hierocles, who was prefect of this province at some point between 206 & 312, & neither his name, nor the other prefects mentioned in that article, are. -- llywrch (talk) 16:33, 26 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

83.0.233.186 (talk) 14:23, 11 July 2016 (UTC) It clearly contradicts "Prosopography of the Later Roman Empire" in many places - best to disregard this list. Also, the only quoted work here could not possibly serve as a reference - it doesn't have any charts of this kind.[reply]
