[edit] Works
A useful collection of influential pirate literature can be fond at this link [[1][2]]. I did not check the references myself, but they seem fairly accurate. The current common perception of pirates is/was greatly influenced by some of the works quoted there like Esquemeling's. Niko3w 17:22, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
- I've added headers to the fictional pirates section which should help make the section easier for people to read through and simpler for editors to expand the sections (as there is plenty of room in all the sections). What I'd suggest is to sort them chronologically as the sections expand. (Emperor 15:38, 11 February 2007 (UTC))
[edit] Pirates in Music
A song under the "Pirates in Music" section is incorrect. The Arrogant Worms song is "The Last Saskatchewan Pirate", not "The Pirates of the Saskatchewan." Also, Saskatchewan was spelt incorrectly.
Additionally, shouldn't the reference to "Barrett's Privateers" (correct spelling) by Stan Rogers be under this section, instead of under "Other"?

[edit] metroid
- Space pirates are also the main enemy of Samus Aran in the Metroid series by Nintendo. In the game, space pirates pursue the unique metroid life form in order to dominate the universe. However, their plans are usually foiled by Samus.
"usually"? come on how many times have you died in Metroid vs. the number of times you defeated Mother Brain? Be honest.--144.131.67.249 13:27, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Go get 'em, Dougie!
Thanks to whoever put in the pirate movies link! Scott Lang 10:27, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Pirates XXX
Shouldn't this be mentioned? It is quite the phenomenon, and definitely has a lot to do with the prevalence of pirates in pop culture. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by IceJew (talk • contribs) 05:34, 28 March 2007 (UTC).
