Recently, I spent a delightful hour debunking pirate myths with my former PhD supervisor. A great bugbear for both of us is always how centuries of pirate mythology has crept into the academic sources that feed Wikipedia. So unless people research, write and publish a whole new book debunking all of the myths and stories, the public information available about most pirates will remain inaccurate, faulty and on occasion, downright false.
