Low

This article has been rated as Low-importance on the project's importance scale.

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

Look at the hieroglyphs - were is the glyph for w and what means the last sign?--Mychele (talk) 18:40, 28 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

The "w" is given in parentheses because it's not always written. The last glyph is a "mouth". The viper and the mouth are sometimes written with the "nefer" sign to indicate nfr. I think the spelling comes from Ranke? --AnnekeBart (talk) 19:08, 28 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

I see "f" and "r" but I can't see "n". I think you forget this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.136.182.237 (talk) 11:15, 20 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

No the n is part of the nfr sign (heart and windpipe). The spelling used in the unicode transliteration comes from de:Bunefer. The hieroglyphic spelling is supported by what is written in Tyldesley and Grajetzki, --AnnekeBart (talk) 12:12, 20 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

So actually sign for beauty or nfr is here a sign for "n", while signs for "f" and "r" are separate. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 161.53.179.232 (talk) 13:08, 20 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

The nfr part of the name is spelled out by the nefer sign plus the f and r glyph. I have seen the same in the writing of htp. That can be made up of the hotep glyph but with an extra t and p glyph --AnnekeBart (talk) 13:22, 20 December 2010 (UTC).Reply
