We publish our audit record because accuracy claims should be checkable. Every entry on this site runs through an automated fact-audit pipeline (accuracy audit → source-grounded repair → visual QA); this page is generated from that pipeline's own report, not written by hand.

Anne Bonny — The entry states 'Bonny and Read were already part of Rackham's company before that date' (referring to the theft of the sloop William on 22 August 1720), but historical accounts indicate they joined Rackham's crew at the time of the theft, not before.
Calico Jack — The claim that Rackham's head was gibbeted on a small cay that later became known as Rackham's Cay is not confirmed by historical records and is based on later tradition.
