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.

Gibbon credits the desolation of the Brucheum to the 12 year civil war in Alexandria about the time of Gallienus, at any rate, right before Claudius II. If that's wrong, at least discuss the various authorities. 108.45.122.74 (talk) 20:31, 3 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

What is missing from the recently created city timeline article? Please add relevant content. Contributions welcome. Thank you. -- M2545 (talk) 16:02, 19 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'm pretty sure the Abbasid caliphate should be mentioned here somewhere.. ^{[1] [2] [3] [4]}

The most famous underwater city in the world? Alexandria.

The most famous thing about Alexandria? It's underwater.

Both of these are missing from this article -- which seems to me very peculiar.

This article seems to deal with a modern-day town of no particular importance, located somewhere in the neighborhood of the historically important city which is now underwater -- but I may be wrong. I came here looking for facts about what I thought I had heard. Fail.

Long lost Alexandria has just as many legends and mysteries spun around it as Atlantis, but this one is real. And it has been found. And there are two sunken cities for the price of one. Alexandria’s remains lie literally a few feet off the coast, while Thonis-Heracleion rests a little farther off the coast of today’s Alexandria. Both spectacularly well-preserved, considering the ruins are more than 2,000 years old and littered with various shipwrecks, dropped anchors, even lost—and found—gold treasures. Temples and buildings of Thonis-Heracleion were once separated by canals, not unlike Venice, but how and why exactly the city became submerged is still a mystery.

While Thonis-Heracleion is still only accessible for scuba divers, Alexandria’s ruins will hopefully soon be on view via the proposed Underwater Archeological Museum of Alexandria.''
