I made my first attempt at using Wiki's new hieroglyphic encoding (see WikiHiero and WikiHiero/Syntax) to do Sneferu's cartouche on this page. If anyone else wants to join in the fun, I found the cartouche at [1]. Further info on the Hieroglyph Coding Manual syntax (including the codes for cartouches, which aren't documented on the above Wiki pages) can be found at Manuel de Codage. --Stormie 05:03, May 31, 2004 (UTC)

Crackpot to controversial I modified the language of the article from crackpot to controversial. Why? There is a tendency for the 'academic' world to dismiss the stories of Egypt from the Bible. And there is a similar tendency for Biblical scholars to dismiss the academic world. In the interests of keeping this article neutral and balanced, I modified the language to be less inflammatory. --Paulrach 09:09, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
