Talk:Twenty-sixth Dynasty of Egypt

Untitled

This is one of several articles on Egyptian history that have grown weaker with further revisons. To future editors, please note that Wikipedia guidelines emphasize starting articles with a topical sentence or two setting forth the subject of the article, & these articles on individual dynasties should be more than a list of rulers -- they should include as much as we know about the political & social history of the period.

I didn't enjoy removing the timeline of Pharoahs for this dynasty (it did look quite nice & obviously a lot of work went into it), but in the end I commented it out for these reasons:

• It omitted some important details that the original table had (e.g., Pharaoh prenomens);
• Due to lack of text, it didn't fit well onto the page with the dynastic infobox; &
• It pushed the page out of shape.

Let's consider details like these more carefully in the future as we work to make Wikipedia better. -- llywrch 04:50, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

I have put the timeline on a separate page ? Of course I'm biased, as I did it, but I feel that timelines show the timespan of the dynasties quite nicely! However, they need to make the article flow better as you said. Markh
