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.

in reference to the assasination of Philip II they say it was pausanias of orestis assasinated him, in some of the sources i looked at Attalus blamed pausanias for the death of his nephew and raped him then, afterwards Philip promoted pausanias and left Attalus in good graces also when Olympias built a memorial to the slain man was it referring to Philip or Pausanias some thing to look into can refer to thanks of the killer or in love/loyalty to her husband after alexander left macedon which is the city philip brought up to be the central power in persia Leonatus threw the spear that killed pausanias in order to either prevent interrogation or that and some no suspition would arouse of his possible involvement in which lead to suspecting the other bodygaurds considering the props invovled ex: the horses being ready to pick them up which brings to a logical conclution that it was planned and by more than one guy in which Heromenes and Arrhabaeus where found guilty in trial.
