New hieroglyph template
[edit]I have created a new template at Template:Infobox hieroglyphs based on its German wiki equivalent which enables article titles to be displayed in hieroglyphs and other scripts as desired.
In addition there is a temporary one at Template:Infobox Hieroglyphen to facilitate the copying of existing infoboxes from German Wikipedia with minimum knowledge of German and display them in English Wikipedia.
Please check out the infoboxes; if they are felt useful I am happy to fine tune them. --Bermicourt (talk) 18:22, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

radiometric data
[edit]Some time back I posted a link to an article from Archaeometry about radiometric dating showing that if the Hyksos reign came to an end with Thera, Ahmose's dates have to move back to just before 1600 BCE. Here is another article with radiometric information which should be taken into consideration. Go down to Nadine Moeller's contribution. http://www.jstor.org/stable/10.1086/675069 71.163.117.143 (talk) 00:33, 8 April 2014 (UTC)

Status report from the Portals WikiProject
[edit]Wikipedia:WikiProject Portals is back!
The project was rebooted and completely overhauled on April 17th, 2018.
Its goals are to revitalize the entire portal system, make building and maintaining portals easier, and design the portals of the future.
As of April 29th, membership is at 56 editors, and growing.
There are design initiatives for revitalizing the portals system as a whole, and for each component of portals.
Tools are provided for building and maintaining portals, including automated portals that update themselves in various ways.
And, if you are bored and would like something to occupy your mind, we have a wonderful task list.
From your friendly neighborhood Portals WikiProject. — The Transhumanist 03:21, 30 April 2018 (UTC)
Deletion not by purpose
[edit]Sorry! Thanks for reverting! --Vollbracht (talk) 02:28, 19 January 2022 (UTC)

A21 A25 A23 |
In Saqqara King List the name of Huni is given on a picture using A21 while on Huni page it's given with A25. In fact when looking at a very old photograph ("Saqqara-deRouge.jpg") it gets obvious that this hieroglyph depicts an upright standing human. The most fitting one is A23 among those in Gardiner list - by view and by meaning. So which one may be valued as correct on a scientific base? (no regard of face direction) Unfortunately I have no high-res photo of the stones. --Vollbracht (talk) 01:16, 19 January 2022 (UTC)
Shift Infobox styles into css file
[edit]In German wiki I just developed a module being able to write vertical cartouches. I will port this here. It will use an Egyptology/styles.css file as a template style sheet. This sheet is meant to control several aspects of designing pages in our Wikiproject and to support all future Egyptology templates. --Vollbracht (talk) 01:16, 19 January 2022 (UTC)
