[edit] Crushing vs. decisive victory
I think crushing victory is a little overstated. In fact, no Turkish ship was sunk, and while they did not sortie again in that war, a crushing victory in my view would require a majority of ships to be disabled if not captured or sunk. Accordingly, unless someone disagrees, I will revert the last edit tomorrow.Argos'Dad 17:53, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Barbarossa
Wasn't Barbarossa a privateer rather than a pirate? He sailed under the Turkish equivalent of a letter of marque, rather than plundering indescriminately as a pirate would. Antidespotic 18:09, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
