??? This article has not yet received a rating on the project's importance scale.
WikiProject Ancient Egypt to-do list:
  • Needed articles
  • Needing attention
    • Articles needing some TLC
    • 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
    • Data sorting
      • Looking through sources for quotes and data that can be added to relevant articles

A fact from Origen appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 10 March2018(check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
  • Did you know... that the Church Father Origen drew heavily on the teachings of Plato and tried to harmonize Greek philosophy with Christian teachings?

He wrote in Latin? What about Greek?

[edit ]
Latest comment: 1 year ago 1 comment1 person in discussion

This article acts like there is no difference between Greek and Latin in his writings. Why can't it say at the beginning or somewhere that all his works were in Greek? There is no way to tell from the article if he knew Latin or not. There's a world of difference between Greek and Latin, it seems like specifically mentioning the languages he knew and used would be significant in such an informative article.

ÖHL

[edit ]
Latest comment: 1 year ago 3 comments2 people in discussion

I have been trying to remove ÖHL links but a bot keeps putting it back in. Anyone know how to solve this problem? -- Melchior2006 (talk) 15:57, 20 November 2024 (UTC) Reply

Hi Melchior2006! Looking at the recent edits to this page, it looks like the reference was used multiple times; the first time the reference was given in full, and the second time, it used the "ref name" function. You deleted the first reference but not the second. One of that bot's functions is to find places where a ref name is referring to a deleted full reference and add the full reference to the short reference, under the assumption that the full reference was deleted by someone who didn't realize that the same reference was referred to in another place in the article. To avoid this, if the source has a "name" field in it, you need to check to see if that ref name is referred to elsewhere in the article and delete those as well.

Age

Latest comment: 8 months ago 2 comments2 people in discussion

In the infobox and the article text it's stated that he was 69 when he died. But minusing the birth and death dates yields 68!

So, his stated age, or one or both the dates are wrong. Aminabzz (talk) 17:47, 14 January 2025 (UTC) Reply

Reference to Veneration

[edit ]

I've noticed that this reference: [1] has been removed from the infobox and text of the article. This particular section is subject to frequent edits on the basis that it is not sources correctly, so I feel that it should have that reference somewhere to prevent this happening again. I don't understand why the reference was removed from either place, so does anyone know where a citation can be placed without it being removed in future?

Hermeneutics - Beyond the Bible

[edit ]
Latest comment: 3 months ago 1 comment1 person in discussion

The Hermeneutics section of the article states "Nonetheless, Origen did have a penchant for speculating beyond what was explicitly stated in the Bible, and this habit frequently placed him in the hazy realm between strict orthodoxy and heresy.

But "The Bible" as a canon didn't exist yet. As noted elswhere in the article, Origen played a key role in defining that canon.

Should this be updated to say "Origen did have a penchant for speculating beyond what was explicitly stated in the gospels"? Khilker15 (talk) 00:09, 30 April 2026 (UTC) Reply
