Talk:Egypt

|
Hey, I really think this article is written badly. "Every green plant is watered by the nile" sounds really stupid. And that one picture of people with the caption "egyptians are one of the most diverse peoples in the middle east" sounds stupid. Its probably some guy who wanted to post a picture of his friends in wikipedia.

I nuked the "diverse people" picture and replaced it with the Sphinx. --Isewell 02:57, 14 May 2005 (UTC)
Ayman Nour
Err.. I don't know how active this page is, but I made a stubby article on Ayman Nour. It would be cool if more knowledgable parties than myself took a look and filled it out a bit? Graft 16:59, 8 May 2005 (UTC)
wtf why is ther no egypt info $%#@heads
Full name lost in recent rounds of vandalism
In recent bank-and-forth vandalism and reverts, we appear to have lost al-ˁArabiyah from the sidebar and the adjective "Arab" from "Arab Republic of Egypt". I'm assuming that was vandal-doings (think I'd have seen something in the papers if Egypt had changed its name) so I'm putting it back. Perhaps someone who watches this article a bit more closely than I do could check it for other inconsistencies over the past month or so? Thanks, –Hajor 23:12, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
audio link
It certainly is spam, have a look at the sheer bulk of the anon's contribs. It might be a useful link despite that, but it should at least go in the external links. However, I don't think it's an appropriate link. It's an interview with an author who wrote about egypt. That's about as tangential as it gets. The external links are supposed to provide additional information about egypt that are relevant yet not contained in this article, which I don't think the interview counts as. The fact that it's audio instead of text doesn't help either in my opinion. see also --W(t) 07:26, 2005 Jun 7 (UTC)
- It's an interesting interview on an interesting work, about interesting discoveries. But point taken. El_C 18:48, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)
