- Comment I do not believe the pirate costume passes the threshold of originality but the Darth Vader and Storm Troopers do. Move to separate the deletion requests. -Nard 14:57, 10 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- It's not generic pirate costume, but precise (in some degree) imitation of Jack Sparrow character. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:03, 10 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. If we'll go with your logic that all Category:Cosplay should be deleted because the main idea of this movement is to copy some popular (usually copyrigthed) characters... Electron (talk) 07:43, 14 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment On the other hand Jack Sparrow character and "The Carribean Pitates (move)" are based on the Carribean Pirates world previous intoduced in Disneyland so they are Commons:Derivative works, too. Many of the main stream of the modern arts are based on previous works, too - we should say... So it is very dificult to say what is the orgin of something and what is not...

- It is a Disney movie, so I would bet money that the movie producers are licensed to use the designs from the amusement park. --InfantGorilla (talk) 15:20, 28 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I suggest merging this deletion request there. Electron <Talk?> 07:51, 13 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I'll be making a cosplay policy proposal quite soon. Please leave this open until then. --MichaelMaggs (talk) 19:22, 27 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
