This article needs to be split up and merged with other articles. I would suggest taking the Fujian/Fuzhou related parts and putting them in there.

Also, a lot of the historical facts in there are just wrong. Very badly wrong. For example Jesuit missionaries to the Yuan has the problem that the Yuan dynasty ended in 1368 while the Jesuits were founded in 1540. Now the Jesuits were active with the Ming and Qing, but that kills the notion that China shut itself off for five hundred years.

The perspective and language sounds very mid-20th or even mid-19th century. For example there is the astonishment that there were actually Jews in China, while completely ignore the quite active cultural interchange with Arabs.

Eight years and the article is about the same... --75.139.102.221 (talk) 02:37, 8 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Seems to still be mostly the same 18 years later. Pizzasausse1 (talk) 06:10, 10 September 2022 (UTC)Reply
