Hi Floatingaxehead. I wanted to try something to both help editors know what to edit and to get more productivity in the area of article development, our most critical yet one of most lacking areas. I was wondering if you would like to work on the Canaan article.

The Canaan article is very relevant to the Pentateuch, which we have focused our content efforts on the past few months. Canaan is covered in Genesis (origins of the people groups and some inferences about migrations; Abraham promised Canaan), Exodus (reiteration of promises), Leviticus (laws and prophecies for Canaan) and Deuteronomy. I was wondering if you could work on the history section of the Canaan article and write about all the Pentateuch-era content, so this would all be prior to Israel's conquest in Joshua.

The biggest thing is the development of the people groups in Canaan and the relevant prophecies. While there is a lot of other anthropological information on Canaan (some aimed against the Bible) the development would need to be solely from the Bible; primarily it would be from Genesis. The rest of the history would be the promises of Canaan by God to the Israelites in a chronological order. There is also the episode of Israel scouting out Canaan in Numbers, but fearing the Nephilim.

Do you think you would be up to the task? Since this is a wiki your work can always be edited and improved on later, but if you need more guidelines let me know.
