Valley of the Kings[edit]

This article has undergone quite a lot of work recently (not just by me), and it would be great to get wider suggestions on the contents, style of presentation and references, etc.

In particular does the long list of tombs and there owners distract from the other sections, or should there be more information on each tomb in this section. Also need to see whether there is any information that is being assumed, and that needs to be referenced / added to this article make it more understandable.

I think it would help to expand the information on each tomb, otherwise it is just a long list that should be separated from the article (List of tombs in the Valley of the Kings, for example). The very wide hieroglypic at the top also has a tendancy to display incorrectly, depending on screen widths: can it be made smaller? -- ALoan (Talk) 01:25, 5 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

We just merged 4 articles listing the tombs into this article! Is it really that distracting - or should this contain a list of principle burials, and the full list be elsewhere ? Not sure about the hieroglyphic, it may be possible, but I am not sure. Thanks for comments Markh 09:47, 5 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Well, we certainly don't need four lists! But I think one good list in a separate article would be better than swamping the more general text in this one. This article should, of course, refer to the lsit and provide details of the number of tombs in each period and details of the more improtant ones, with links to their articles too, in summary style. -- ALoan (Talk) 10:26, 5 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Great, thanks for replying – I will think about which tombs need to be here – and split the whole list of burials off to a new article – Burials in the Valley of the Kings Markh 18:41, 5 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
