Puzzle Pirates talk:About

Pirate Talk?
(moved from Talk:Main Page)

I'm not sure I like the idea of making everything sound "piratey." I'd rather have documentation-quality pages that are easy to read.

If a page about a particular pirate, crew, or flag wants a little flavor, that's fine, but I think it's distracting when reading about how to play the puzzles. -- Barrister 06:23, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)

To be brief, I'm undecided Callistan

I agree with Barrister. -- Blinkoing

I really don't think this should be in piratey talk. It is confusing and this is supposed to be about clear information. Please remove the request for pirate talk. --Lessah of Midnight 21:10, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Sounds like a plan. I'll go do it. maybe we should have some "official" word about piratey speech someplace, so that people aren't overzealous or discouraged about it. --Tyroney 01:54, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I started the Puzzle Pirates:About page (linked in the footer of every page) and noted the preferred "writing style" there. --Callistan 23:21, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)

(In reference to the About page stating the above consensus...) What? I never said that! I wanted it to be Piratey! --Ihope 23:54, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * But others don't. It is hard to write clearly in Piratese and hard to understand.  The consensus references above was that everyone who posted agreed and no one disagreeed.  If you disagree (and it is "your" wiki as much as a wiki can be anyone's) help us to know why and get others who agree to post too so we can have a discussion.  --Lessah of Midnight 18:59, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)
