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.

Intercalary month (Egypt) → Intercalary month (Coptic calendar) – The primary Egyptian topic for an intercalary month is described at Nasi' - specifically that Islam does not have Intercalary months.

Oppose – the intercalary month as described at Nasi' has nothing to do with the 5-day intercalary month as used in the Egyptian solar calendar which predates the Coptic calendar (and Islam) by several millennia. AstroLynx (talk) 09:37, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Alternate proposal[edit]

Move to Intercalary month and broaden the scope to match this title. I suggest another relisting to consider this alternate proposal. Andrewa (talk) 07:33, 21 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
