Material from Marco Polo was split to Niccolò and Maffeo Polo on 7 July 2009. The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted so long as the latter page exists. Please leave this template in place to link the article histories and preserve this attribution. The former page's talk page can be accessed at Talk:Marco Polo.
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]
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".--Cúchullaint/c13:48, 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]
