I added something about how this concept of "curved" weapons being associated with evil expands into the modern era, with the AK-47 or AKM having distinct curved magazines. Does this work?

Could you please tell me if you're asking me? I don't have a problem with what you wrote, if that's what you're asking. I'm just curious if my edit was a good idea or not. Also, as I wrote in my reply below, sorry about replying four months late.

This is about an edit I made three years ago. Could anyone please tell me if it was all right to change make the edit described below?

Originally, a paragraph in the opening section went as thus:

"Probably born from the European view of the Crusades, where the righteous Christians Christians were fighting the scimitar-wielding Arabs and Turks Muslims (even though Arabs preferred the spear and straight sword as weapons). Another possible influence could be cutlass-wielding pirates."

I changed it to:

"Probably born from the European view of the Crusades, where the Christians were fighting the scimitar-wielding Arabs and Turks (even though Arabs preferred the spear and straight sword as weapons). Another possible influence could be cutlass-wielding pirates."

The former came off as preachy to me. Sorry if I was wrong to do this.

Edit, nearly two months after posting: Just realized that both paragraphs were identical. The edit involved a removal of the link to Protagonist-Centered Morality. I've edited the above to reflect that; sorry about all of this. (Further edit: Tried adding quotation marks around "Protagonist-Centered Morality" to avoid backslash in "I've", but it didn't work, so I removed them. Sorry about that as well.) (Another edit: Changed comma to semicolon between "that" and "sorry" in third sentence.) (Yet another edit: Forgot to add second parenthesis to previous edit, fixed, sorry about that and cause for previous edit as well.)
