The article says it's a term for "Soldiers of fortune from western and eastern Europe", but a Google search turned up nothing.Senori 02:24, Dec 13, 2004 (UTC)

To find the definition, Source: "A History of the Arab Peoples" Albert Hourani page 189. Not everything can be found on the internet.
- Keep and make it a stub. However, I do not appreciate anon's act of removing comments. Expanding the article would have been more appropriate - Skysmith 10:07, 13 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- Comment: this seems real, but it would be nice if somebody could verify this and expand the article. Jeltz 12:03, 2004 Dec 13 (UTC)
- It's misspelled for Saqaliba - which I've now moved it to, with expansion. - Mustafaa 14:57, 14 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- Keep, with spelling fix. But it should really be expanded. Katefan0 19:34, Dec 14, 2004 (UTC)
- Keep Saqaliba. I added the stub template. Paul August ☎ 23:34, Dec 18, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Dbachmann's deletion
Reverted. The fact that russians cannot make chinese from japanese does not invalidate the fact that arabs could not make russians from poles. Not to say that this observation is important in the article's context. `'mikka (t) 17:35, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
