[edit] Article

• Could an expert please determine whether 'Aruj or just Aruj (without any ') is correct, or whether an entirely different, specialised glyph (e.g. À) is required? The article currently contains a mixture.

[edit] Merge with Barbarossa_Khair_ad_Din_Pasha?

Isn't this article about exactly the same person as described in this article:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbarossa_Khair_ad_Din_Pasha

No, they are not the same. They are brothers.

They are brothers, but one outlived the other, as is mentioned in the linked article. Drakonis 21:49, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Aruj or Oruç?

I noticed that Aruj has been changed to Oruç, which should it be? There are more google results for Aruj pirate than Oruc pirate, and Aruj seems to be the Anglicized name (plus the title of the article). --Awiseman 21:30, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

His original name is Oruç Reis.

Italians name Prince Charles as "Principe Carlo", but he is Charles, not Carlo.

Similarly, Dragut's original name is Turgut Reis, hence the proper name of the article.
