status[edit]

As reviewing admin, I did not delete it--but much of it was copied from the web site, which is not permitted, and discusses the general background of why Egypt's cultural heritage is so very important, and the world in general so greatly interested in it. While certainly true, it isn't necessary to go into it here--it is fully discussed in many other articles. I therefore removed those portions.

What needs to be done now is to briefly describe the other projects, making sure to use the web site only for information, but to rewrite it in a brief informative manner. And then what is needed is to find & add published references from external sources talking about the programs. DGG ( talk ) 21:46, 9 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This still reads like a brochure, all sourced to CULTNAT's website, and full of hype-y material. I'm also dubious about the use of the imagery taken from the website - the editor listing as placing it into the public domain is User:CULTNAT, but as we know users cannot truly represent organizations, so the claim that the work is his to place in the public domain is dubious. --Nat Gertler (talk) 15:44, 19 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
