[edit] 320,000?
This estimate should be removed, as it is derived from intra-community sources. The census information is still fairly valid. Also, I believe that an increase of 120,000 Greeks in 9 years is close to impossible, with an average birth rate and an immigration rate that is far lower than it was in the past. With that being said, I am certain that the number has increased; I'd just prefer more accurate information. It often seems that every ethnic community attempts to inflate its numbers - what purpose does it serve? -- Iol 01:53, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
- I noticed on this page the census information from 2001. It lists the Greek population at 215,105. I am removing the speculation and adjusting the article. Feel free to debate the change. -- Iol 01:56, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Steve Staios Greek?
According to Steve Staios himself his parents are Macedonian[1], he is also very proud that Macedonia is now an independent country[2]. Therefore he is Macedonian and not Greek. There is no source that says that he is Greek.
