Talk:Aruj Barbarossa

message: His own brother's(Barbaros Hızır Hayreddin Pasha) autobiography (Gazavat-i Hayreddin Paşa) clearly states that his father Yakup bey is a Turk and a retired sipahi(which were exclusively composed of Turkish landowners). So hisfather is clearly not Greek. His mother on the other hand(which both brothers inherited their ginger hair) is Greek. But the article does not mention the mother and claims the father is Greek. This is wrong and should be corrected.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.97.18.12 (talk) 05:41, 21 June 2012 (UTC)

message: * 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.

message: 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)
thread_title:  Aruj or Oruç? 

message: His father cannot be a janissary sipahi because such thing doesn't exist and never existed. I have never read or heard of such a thing like a janissary sipahi. What is that supposed to be then? Everybody with some knowledge about the Ottoman military system, would know:
-That a janissary is an infantryman and a sipahi is a cavalryman. So it is impossible to be an infantry and cavalry soldier at the same time.
-A sipahi was given land by the sultan in new conquered areas. This was not given to janissaries. His father, Yakup Aga, was given land for his military services.
-Janissaries were not allowed to marry, they lived in their barracks. So if Yakup Aga was a janissary how come he gets married? 
-Janissaries and Sipahis were different types of soldiers.
-Also it is not possible to be an janissary and then turn into a sipahi and vice-versa.
THUS he was a Sipahi and NOT a Janissary Sipahi.
And I do no invent this, all other sources call his father a Sipahi. They do not mention anything about janissary.
If you want more information read the janissary and sipahi article.
I want to congratulate the person who found the source for janissary sipahi, because for finding such a weird sourceDragonTiger23 (talk) 17:16, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Janissary Sipahi doesn't exist 

message: As an avid reader of Ottoman history, I have never come accross an Aruj. Seems like another perfectly good article that has fallen victim to the ultra-nationalist and cheuvenistic editors. WP seems to go down a hole and this scourage is eating it alive. What a shame.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.77.155.172 (talk) 03:22, 8 April 2012 (UTC)
