[edit] Map

We need an emmidiate template with years (305 BC-30 BC) and a nice map for this one. I can contribute with materials but I am very poor with technical stuff. Please consider this, a template like "Inca Empire" or "Roman Republic" with a map an so.

[edit] Monarch and Nomarch

This change was made back in May 2006 at History of Greek and Roman Egypt. The text was since moved to Ptolemaic Egypt, but the important point is that nomarch was correct, and monarch was incorrect. I have now changed things so they are correct again. Please can anyone watching the article ensure that a similar well-intentioned mistake is not made in the future.

[edit] Basilikon Agemata

The section under Basilikon Agemata is confusingly formatted and written. Should someone do something about this or flag it?

[edit] Plagiarized Material

A large chunk of this article (Namely, all of the portions discussing the Ptolemaic Army) is lifted from the unit descriptions of the Ptolemaioi army for Europa Barbarorum, a mod for the PC game Rome: Total War. This probably should be corrected. The lifted text can originally be found here: http://europabarbarorum.com/factions_ptolemaioi_units.html Swordwraith 20:11, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
