Short summary. Bold '''Samplepirate''''s name the first time it is used, and only the first time. It's useful to include the 'short list' items here: crew, flag, and ocean. Link each of those in the first paragraph, and you don't have to worry about finding the first link in the biography text; it's already done.

== Contributions and accomplishments ==
* Bullet list of history
* Reverse chronological order (most recent/current deeds at the top)
* May want to split if, for example, a very active pirate is also an island designer
* Also useful to split into subheadings for cross-ocean pirates

== Biography ==
Wordy description of the piratey life. Examples I refer to frequently are [[Attesmythe]] and [[Belgarion]], also [[Feegle]]. [[Sivius]] is a pirate to which I applied the pseudo-template during regular [[:Category:Cleanup|cleanup]] duty. [[Jacktheblack]]'s page has also developed well, and [[Antix]]'s page is another good example of a complicated page.
