I need help with editing an article.
Just Updated
I made an article about the soldiers of the red turban guards. It’s a work in progress, and can you please expand it?
In the series of films about the Scorpion King, Mathayus is shown as a noble mercenary and liberator of nations; in the Mummy it is a cruel and bloodthirsty warrior-conqueror-tyrant. Why did he become evil? Can anybody tell me?
The prologue of Mummy Returns takes place in 3067 BC. But judging by the architecture of Thebes, this is clearly not 3067 BC, but rather the architecture of the Old Kingdom period (it was much later than 3067 BC). And in terms of uniforms, shape and appearance, the army of Thebes refers rather to the period of the same Ancient Kingdom, and the army of the Scorpion King generally resembles the Hittites and Hyksos in appearance, which at that time did not even exist. I am already silent about his bracelet - there was no such jewelry accuracy then.
Is the battle for Thebes the beginning of the conquest of Egypt by the Scorpion King? Or is it one of the battles during the conquest of Egypt? Or was it a decisive battle that the Scorpion King lost and was eventually driven into the desert with his army?
And most importantly: HOW could such a great warrior lose the decisive battle that he fled into the desert with his army? In the prologue, it was shown that he fought bravely, and in the end lost the battle...
The Scorpion King shown to us in The Mummy is a descendant of the Scorpion King from the film series? In the first film about the Scorpion King himself, it is said that the actions take place long before the Egyptian pyramids, although in the film (Mummy) they are shown ...
After seeing Tomb of the Dragon Emperor, it was kind of dissapointing to see such a good series sputter to a close. In seeing the simularities in both The Mummy and Indiana Jones Franchise, they could've actually made a decent crossover with each other, making it a final movie to both franchises. It also would've been better if the time setting was near the end of WWII (1944 or Mid 1945).
In this case, an egyptian or samurai mummy would be the antagonist, hence with the assistance of either Nazi Germany, Imperial Japan or both of them.
This could have been an exciting close to their adventures, in seeing their interactions with each other.
On the chat, how are all the catagories split up?

Hi all! I have an awesome update regarding the Unified Community Platform (UCP). As a reminder, the UCP is a new unified platform giving users the up-to-date MediaWiki experience including the latest features! More can be found here as a reminder.
In terms of new updates, Fandom staff posted three staff blogs:
- Unified Community Platform: The Vision, Purpose, and Process - This update provides a clearer idea as to the end goals of the platform. This includes mobile editing, latest features, customization options - and more! Mobile editing will be an especially popular addition, given the rising number of mobile users across Fandom.
- Creating new wikis on the Unified Community Platform - Fandom is now allowing users to create new communities on the UCP! Users will be able to get a first look at the new platform. The wiki creation process will also aim to prevent duplicate wikis being created, allowing for users to contribute to active communities and be part of a Fandom project viewed by massive amounts of passionate fans!
- Profile and Message Wall on the Unified Community Platform - Profiles are getting an update on the UCP, with a cleaner design and also more freedom for users to express themselves. More fields have been added and you can now add a banner image like you can on Twitter and other social media sites. Message Wall is also receiving a lift, getting a cleaner design more in line with Discussions to keep things consistent.
What do you think of these updates? Comment below and feel free to leave questions on those blog posts so staff can respond! :) --Spongebob456 talk

Hey guys!
I'm here to let you know that staff have exciting plans for the future of video on Fandom, including the future of what was Featured Video (FV) and what is replacing it.
A replacement for FV, titled The Loop, is set to be a mini-show that will be different for each vertical, highlighting the latest news from topics relating to that vertical. The best bit? These videos will use wiki articles and will encourage users to visit the wikis featured in the videos to find out more.
As a new episode of The Loop will be released weekly, you will see a wide variety of wikis of featured so there is every chance yours will be featured too!
Please see the latest staff blog for more details and feel free to ask me any questions!
Secondly, staff posted a blog about Fandom in 2019 and the amazing things achieved! Here's to a great 2020. :)

Hi guys! Fandom staff posted two important and exciting blogs recently which I wanted to make you aware of!
- Global taxonomy
The title sounds really fancy and complicated, but this boils down to Fandom recommending content you want to see. Fandom has received feedback from users who are receiving recommendations to visit certain wikis they are not interested in.
With this data driven approach, users on a wiki will receive recommendations for new communities to visit based on what typical readers of that subject are interested in. That way you can attract like-minded users to your community and you get to visit other wikis you are interested in!
Please do read the blog for more information. If you have any questions on this, please feel free to let me know!
- Templates and scripting
This Best Practices blog talks about what a lot of users have questions about - templates and JavaScript.
A key message on the blog is not to do overdo the templates and JavaScript on a wiki as that can slow the wiki down and make the experience not so good for users.
The blog goes into how you can effectively use templates and JavaScript and ways you can make the user experience better. For example, it is really recommended communities use user-friendly parameter names for templates so new users can edit the wiki article and contribute to the wiki.
The blog is packed with details so please do give it a read! Also feel free to ask me any questions.
Thanks guys!

Hello all!
I am your new bureaucrat and administrator and I am looking fowarded with your help to make this wiki somewhat popular again.
The Mummy and The Mummy Returns are some of my favorite movies and I'm happy there's a place to talk about them.
Some new changes are coming and I would love to hear from the community on what they think can help to get this wiki back on track.
And please let me know if you have questions.
I've enabled comments on articles for disussion purposes and now made it to where you have to log in to edit to stop vandals and spam so far. Changed the wallpaper as well.

So in Captain Marvel, the main hero picks up a "cat" to scare off a bad guy of sorts just like Rick did to Imhotep.
If it's a reference to The Mummy, then that's awesome!
What do you think if you've seen the movie and know what I'm talking about?

Does anyone know the age differences of the Carnahan siblings and Ardeth?? I looked at the bios and didn't see anything about Jonathan or Ardeth's ages...

Does Evie still work at the Cairo Museum of Antiquities whilst she goes off on her adventures?
(edited by A Fandom user)
I do. The Mummy and The Mummy Returns are just great. Tomb of the Dragon Emperor, eh, not so much, imo.

How many soldiers are in the army of Anubis? And do they regenerate every time they are commanded to?
(edited by A Fandom user)
On the article for Ahm Shere, it says it was mentioned in Tomb of the Dragon Emperor. I watched the film recently and I can't recall it ever being mentioned, not even indirectly. Where is it?
