I'd suggest moving this page to the Draft namespace, and then move it back to mainspace when it is ready. Scimitar and Shamshir already exist, and there is likely to be significant overlap. The talk in the page belongs here, not in the article.

But there is no difference between the straight and the saber in those articles. It's utterly devoid of information. And it requires it. I have the books to give it more context. There is a clear difference. Not to mention, the scimitar comes from the turks, not the Arabs. Those articles, in fact, are badly designed.
