Consistency
In the table listing the kings, could we have consistency regarding what is written and what the common name is? What I mean is that for some entries it looks like what was written (part for which we can read) is listed without parenthesis (such as the incomplete "sekhem...re") and some entries have just one name listed leaving a reader to wonder if that name is what is written or if it is the common name, or both. I think, for all entries (except, obviously, destroyed entries), it should list common name followed by a parenthetical transcription of what was written (even if they are the same), and in cases where the common name is uncertain, just list the common name as "uncertain". This should remove any ambiguity for each entry which the list currently has. Also, some would probably disagree here, but I personally would prefer if the transcriptions of the written included diacritics and some of the letters currently missing (for example I would suggest for the current transcription of "Se-hotep-ib-re" as "Se-ḥotep-jb-rīˁa" — the differences be the diacritic under the H, the j for the reed consonant, and the `ayin missing from the deity's name). If the clarity of these consonants are helpful to me, I'm sure others, too, would like to see them. — al-Shimoni  ( talk ) 04:35, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
