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.

Inconsistency of fruit type

In the text it remains unclear what type of fruit this species produces. First it is stated "The fruit are berries," in the section "Description". Further down in the section "Ecology" it is stated: "The fruit suddenly bursts when ripe, and the scattered seed float away. The seed soon sinks." which is a contradiction. Berries are indehiscent, whereas the latter text section states the fruit is dehiscent, so it cannot be a berry. If the latter were true, I believe it were correct to describe it as a fleshy capsule instead. Conan Wolff (talk) 06:41, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
