The fates of Niccolo and Maffeo

[edit]

I feel like if I didn't see in the Talk section that this had been split off into a second article from Marco Polo, I would have been able to tell. Starting with the Second Voyage, Niccolo and Maffeo practically vanish from their own article and it just becomes about Marco Polo's individual exploits. They're apparently alive during the entire trip and both return home to Venice with Marco, but there's no information of what becomes of them after that. Niccolo apparently died that same year, how? Maffeo lived for another 15 years, so what became of him? I can understand if maybe that information is unknown because of how long ago that was, but then there should be some conversation about that. As is, this article reads like someone just copy/pasted the parts of Marco Polo's article that had to do with Niccolo and Maffeo and placed it here. 2601:D:3500:75:2595:900:7ADD:2E46 (talk) 20:42, 13 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Recent edits

[edit]

Not sure what was wrong with the recent edits to the into, mostly they were done for style and clarity. Hopefully this fixes whatever issue there was with the "ethnicity".--Cúchullain t/c 13:48, 29 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I am sorry for reverting your changes, but some users had modified the ethnicity before my undo without writing in the talk page before. Anyway I think that your last edit can fix the problem by avoiding potential misunderstandings between nationality/ethnicity and medieval citizenship.--93.32.168.63 (talk) 13:55, 29 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Maffeo or Matteo

[edit]

Why Maffeo? It's Matteo.

"Maffeo" name does not exist in Italian language. While "Matteo" is "Matthew". --Mezze stagioni (talk) 21:50, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
