MarraquetaPortuguese roll – It is by far the most common name in English for this type of bread. I don't think this is a controversial move, but Portuguese roll is already a re-direct. // Hippo43 (talk) 22:24, 6 June 2021 (UTC) Relisting. Andrewa (talk) 18:13, 14 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

Content of the article misleading edit

Hello, I consider the content of the article is misleading. It tries to show that the main name of the bread is "Portuguese roll", and "marraqueta" being only an alternative name. On the contrary, marraqueta is an independent name and bread by itself, of which most ancient sources indicate it originated from Chile. Continuing with the confusion, the main photo of the article shows a "Portuguese roll", which is very curious, since the article is about marraqueta, not portuguese roll! If the creator wanted to make an article about portuguese roll, he could have made a separate article for this, but the way the present article is written leads to confusion, and the practical result is that it dimishes the visibility of the "marraqueta" and its most ancient country of origin, Chile. — Preceding unsigned comment added by CristianDA (talkcontribs) 10:19, 17 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Removal of content edit

I've removed quite a bit of content about this bread being known in Europe and Asia. That doesn't seem to be true. There may very well be similar breads in both regions, but that doesn't mean they're this bread. Valereee (talk) 16:06, 10 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
