 | This template is within the scope of WikiProject Ancient Egypt, a collaborative effort to improve the coverage of Egyptological subjects on Wikipedia. If you would like to participate, please visit the project page, where you can join the discussion and see a list of open tasks. | | Template | This template does not require a rating on the project's quality scale. | | WikiProject Ancient Egypt to-do list: | edit · history · watch · purge  | Here are some tasks you can do: - Requests: We should have an article on every Pharaoh & every nome in Ancient Egypt. Let's check to see if every important Egyptologist has an article. Surely, we can think of other articles we should have?
- Wikify: "Data sorting": 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.
- Verify: Fix / reclaim the Great Pyramid of Giza.
- Cleanup: To start with, most of the general history articles badly need attention, and at least some of the dynasty articles need work. Any other candidates?
- Expand: "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)
- Stubs: Anyone?
- Update: Any article with dated (obsolete) information.
- Infobox: Add an infobox or navbox to any article that doesn't have one yet.

I have added a Graeco-Roman Period; for justification see Template talk:Late Egyptian Dynasty list —Nefertum17 08:32, 24 Jan 2005 (UTC)
I am moving the Twenty-first dynasty from the New Kingdom to the Third Intermediate Period where it belongs. This is justified on the basis of almost any current book on the topic. I have also reorganised the Middle Kingdom to reflect a fairly strong scholarly consensus, but also to use the chronology of Shaw (ed.)
