Well, Krste has a point. Why not either, while leaving Aegean Macedonia in alphabetical order,

  • take out the national labels altogether, since they are in the text both places this is transcluded?
  • or use Republic of Macedonia, which is what that article is called?

Not much point to having two links to Vardar Macedonia. Septentrionalis 15:55, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

You don't mean Krste Misirkov, do you? :-)
  • Thanks for agreeing for the order (either if we do it alphabetically, or by size, or as it is in the relative articles, this is the way it should be).
  • If we put 'RoM' then we'll also have to change the text for 'Greek Macedonia', to just 'Macedonia' (since that would be the self-id term, and not only the Greek part should be forced to disambiguate).
  • Fmore, the names there, refer to the geographic-historic names. We have the contemporary entity names in the 'Politics' template and section.
  • 'Yugoslav Macedonia' is a historic name that predates all contemporary political issues and has nothing to do with modern history entities. (Google scholar)
  • I agree that both links should not link to 'Vardar Macedonia', so, how about we link "formerly Yugoslav Macedonia" to RoM, as we have done with the "Socialist Republic of Macedonia", which is a redirect to RoM in the 'modern history' section? •NikoSilver 16:25, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
