It is probably smart to wipe out all the previous stuff on the talk page since it was riddled with errors and nonsense. The article still is not as good as it ought to be. Vespucci almost certainly made THREE voyages to "America", the 1503-04 voyage being confirmed by Damiao de Gois and accepted by first rate authorities such as Teixeira da Mota in Portugal and Consuelo Varela in Spain. Varela wrote a marvelous summation of Vespucci's life that is at present definitive. It should be the basis for a good article on Vespucci. Of course the author would need to be able to read Spanish. I won't go any further, but again Wikipedia shows itself very poor with regard to sorting out what authorities are to be trusted and which ones are not. As someone said recently, intelligence consists of knowing WHOM to believe. People who are not intelligent don't know and are confused.
