Macedonia
The phrase Republic of Macedonia has too many meanings to be useful in a definition. --EncycloPetey 00:28, 10 January 2009 (UTC)


 * "Macedonia" has too many meanings to be useful in a definition. However, the Republic of Macedonia refers only to the nation whose capital is Skopje. -- Local  hero  00:33, 10 January 2009 (UTC)
 * No, it doesn't. Some qualification is required to specify which entity is meant.  Please note that Republic of Macedonia links to Macedonia, so it is a meaningless self-reference.  The redirect probably should be deleted, since it is "sum of parts". --EncycloPetey 00:46, 10 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Okay, I see what you mean. However, I think the redirect should be kept because a good amount of people know that there is a difference between "Macedonia" and "Republic of Macedonia" when searching. Or, a separate page for "Republic of Macedonia" could be made, seeing as there is one for FYROM and Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia. -- Local  hero  00:55, 10 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I have changed the redirect to an "only in", which points to the Wikipedia article. If you think it deserves its own full entry as a word here, then please create the article. --EncycloPetey 00:56, 10 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Alright, sounds good. -- Local  hero  00:59, 10 January 2009 (UTC)
 * And one for ΠΓΔΜ, I created it :) Bogorm 09:13, 10 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Great. I wonder whose side you're on... -- Local  hero  17:32, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

Vote you might be interested in
I thought all of the Serbo-Croatian Wiktionary speakers were notified, but I somehow forgot you: Votes/pl-2009-06/Unified_Serbo-Croatian. Basically we're trying to enforce common treatment of B/C/S (and soon-coming "Montenegrin") under one L2 section by policy, due to much unneeded "controversy" that arose once some of the other non-native speakers realized what we were doing.. If your proficiency in Serbo-Croatian is sh-2 as you note on your userpage, the rationale for the merger proposal should be pretty much self-understandable :)) If you could leave a brief comment (preferebly on the   vote :) on the differences and "differences" among Serbo-Croatian varieties from your experience, it would be greatly appreciated. Cheers! --Ivan Štambuk 14:48, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

Tidligere/Voormalige
Let's forget the political discussion, I come with a linguistic question - why did you initially write Tidligere Jugoslaviske instead of Voormalige - Tidligere Jugoslaviske is the Danish æquivalent? Are you learning Danish? What caused the confusion The uſer hight Bogorm converſation 21:18, 12 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Oh, lol. No, I'm not learning Danish. I thought the entry was Danish so I looked for a translation of 'former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia' into that language, but I later realised that it was actually Dutch. -- Local hero talk 22:24, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
