As you may have noticed, the main article has been revamped to include swordsmanship on a global scale. To provide this information without a massive article, I think it would be best to follow the WP:SS type of page design. This will allow us to provide succinct general information with wikilinks to more in depth and detailed articles that deal with a specific subsections of swordsmanship, be it swords themselves, schools, masters, or the tactical deployment of swordsmen in battle.
Because of this revamp, I have added an archive page and cleared the old talk page. As far as I'm concerned, the article is experiencing a rebirth, so the talk page needs a new beginning as well. Here it is! --xiliquierntalk16:27, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
European Section
This section has been pretty heavily rewritten, but I think a few more important links could be added. In the mean time, I'd like if someone would verify my edits. I don't want to have any mistakes, big or small, made in the chronology or subject of the article. Thanks! --xiliquierntalk20:12, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
You might should consider breaking the Modern section of European swordmanship into Classical and Modern? Great work on the article!Ranp22:20, 2 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the vote of confidence! Breaking up the Modern section probably wouldn't be a bad idea. What would you think of subsections: Classical, Historical, Sport? That way the big three modern western ambitions each have their own little section?
