Talk:Space Pirate (Metroid)

message: Where is it stated that Space Pirate guns are genetically engineered deals and not just interestingly designed handheld weapons?
>> It was never stated, but they seem to have replaced their hands by them--as there is no room for the hand to fit inside the claw, and you can see no hand inside when the claws are open.  Plus we know they love genetic engineering.
:The chances are that yes, they're doing genetic engineering.  And to answer your question, they're both guns AND claws!  They're seen in most recent 2D games gripping to the walls and whatnot, and  similarly shooting from those claws.  Or something like that.  :)  MasterXiam 04:41, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Guns or claws? 

message: For external links, (or to add an internal link to a new artical) would anyone agree to have a link to Space Pirate Logs from the Metroid Prime series? In order of scan or order of the date of log?
I think the external link would be best. The article would probably violate a copyright or something. --DcPimp 14:11, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Space Pirate Logs to add? 

message: In the article it says "Weavel is a former Space Pirate". How exactly does that work, 'Space Pirate' is a race or specie so how can Weavel be a former member of a race or specie. Just a little discrepancy, shoud it be change or is it fine as it is.
It means Weavel is a former Space Pirate soldier. If you've read enough about Weavel, you'll know he's no longer a common fighter, but an assassin/commando. But, as long as I'm here, shouldn't the Battlehammer's main information be here, since it is originally Pirate technology? --DcPimp 23:55, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  About Weavel 

message: Maybe someone should include the fact that we never actually SEE the Space Pirates appear in a game until Super Metroid, and only near the end of that game.  That was always kind of a mystery during the first two games: were all the miscellaneous creatures on Zebes supposed to be the Pirates, or were they just hiding somewhere behind the scenes?

thread_title:  First Appearance 

message: I know that fans have dubbed the "ninja pirates" so, but have they ever been officially called his personal body guards?  Or even officially called Ninja pirates? Xubelox 00:52, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Ridley's Personal Bodygaurds?

message: I believe Weavel should get his own page.
:He's not that important. He showed up for one game as a secondary character, we know very little about him, and he's just not very important. He's not important enough to get his own page. --DcPimp 23:05, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Please sign your posts.  I second DcPimp.  Weavel simply isn't important enough to warrant his own page, and there isn't enough information on him besides. - Kalarchis 05:06, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Weavel 

message: I know the article says that the pirate's basic form has two thumbs and a single finger, but I honestly think it looks more like two fingers and a thumb... Where did you get the "two thumbs and a finger" bit from?

replies: text: Look at the handprints in MP2: E. They've got a middle finger, and two short, thumblength growths on the side. --DcPimp 12:32, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Question about Space Pirate Anatomy 

message: Well, I made a History section for the Pirates (though for some parts of it i forgot to to log in), better explaing their roles in the games.  I also did alot of editing to my own work, and moved things around, and deletd the opening statement; far too long and no longer neccesarry.  Anyways, just edit any mistakes i may have made (i tried hard to make sure spelling was okay and stuff) and if yuo decide to rvert back to the old form, please explain why; this took me a while.

replies: text: Looks good to me. Just needs a little work on punctuation and stuff, maybe some rewording here and there, but otherwise fine. Oh, and hi, I'm the Pants of Destiny 18:03, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  History section 

message: I know this article is actually rather poor, but why does it need a complete rewrite?  I think just a general cleanup would be better, but who's idea was this rewrite and why? 199.126.137.209 15:28, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: User:Vulian put a cleanup tag there on December 20th, then changed it to the rewrite tag. I don't know why, and you're right, it's overkill and cleanup would be more appropriate. Vulian has only two edits since that day, and his Wikistess level is set at "I quit," so I doubt asking him about it would do any good. I'm going to change the tag back to cleanup. --Herald Alberich 22:09, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Rewrite

message: All right, it's clear that this article needs cleanup. First of all, the huge "description" paragraphs have to be deleted - all information must be referenced from either the games, comics, manuals, or something else. Also, such a detailed Weavel description isn't needed either, since it's riddled with game hints. The entire "pirate society" and "other types of pirates" sections need to be cut down to size.--ZXCVBNM 22:52, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
