WikiProject Ancient Egypt to-do list:

Needed articles
- A page with a list of desired articles / wishlist
  - Current: Most nomes, government / administration or alternatively Organization of the ancient Egyptian State if those aren’t separate topics, State development in predynastic Egypt, Predynastic hunting, Kleinkönig (Egypt), Predynastic marine (egypt), and Disability in ancient Egypt
  - Redirects that could be articles: Economy of ancient Egypt
- Could also do with a list of articles that are in urgent need of some TLC
Needing attention
- Articles needing some TLC
  - Current: Fifth Dynasty of Egypt has a lot of details missing
- Project page could use some work, specifically the aimless links in the header. Whether those get directed to destinations or removed is up for debate
- The Religion work group has a separate To-Do that could always use some love
- All stub and start class articles, always
Misc
- Standardized chronology
  - Currently a difficult task due to the lack of consensus in the greater community over an accurate chronology, but definitely something to keep coming back to
  - In the meanwhile: it’s a good policy to have a survey of dates from sources in articles about time periods; for smaller mentions (ex. at the start of “Atenism under Akhenaten” here: “Amenhotep IV, the son of Amenhotep III, was crowned king c. 1353 BC.”) circa is your best friend
- Discussion
  - Creating a separate article for Predynastic Egypt from Prehistoric Egypt starting with the Badarian culture where many overviews begin
- Data sorting
  - Looking through sources for quotes and data that can be added to relevant articles

Possible CopyVio?

The second two-thirds of the article are headed with: The following text is from the website of the Columbia University Advanced Papyrological Information System...

I searched a bit at the Columbia University Advanced Papyrologica Information Systems website, and I could find no reason to believe that the text is public domain. The text appears to be from a grant application to the NEH (National Endowment for the Humanities). Does such text automatically become public domain? -Rholton 00:38, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)

The APIS site is definitely intended for public use. Any restrictions are stipulated by the various participating members (as noted on the site). —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kr2ft (talk • contribs) 15:40, 1 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
