Talk:Bliking Pirates

Crew Name
Where did "Wapol Pirates" come from? Wapol's introduction (Chapter 131 page 11) and Databook Yellow (pg 235) both list the crew's name as the Bliking Pirates (ブリキング海賊団), same name/pun as their ship. 167.160.116.202 16:02, July 28, 2015 (UTC)

Yet another case where there is no citation for our current title. Any ideas, anyone? 20:52, July 28, 2015 (UTC)

Who knows. Probably bad scanlations or a mistake by the creator of the article. In any case, it's clear that it's wrong. Another mistake that has gone uncorrected for such a long time that everyone started to think it's correct. 11:31, July 29, 2015 (UTC)

Time to change then?

Yep, this is totally cut-and-dried unless someone can provide an instance where they're referred to as "Wapol Pirates". Closing the discussion and renaming. 11:57, July 29, 2015 (UTC)

Renaming to what? It's been this way since before I even joined the wiki, so try tracking down one of the older (than me) editors. 19:29, July 29, 2015 (UTC)

I don't know why this was moved when a random IP commented and claimed what they claimed without a source or anybody actually asking a translator. SeaTerror (talk) 19:37, July 29, 2015 (UTC)

Well, the only translation I could find was the Tin Can King Pirates. But since that's 100% not the Wapol Pirates, I see no problem changing it.

I meant we would need to check the RAW. Just somebody claiming something doesn't mean it's actually true. SeaTerror (talk) 20:54, July 29, 2015 (UTC)

Yeah, let's find a raw and have a translator take a look. We had Kanji for Wapol Pirates, let's see if that actually came from anywhere. 03:30, July 30, 2015 (UTC)
