FYROM or Republic of Macedonia

After extensive edit warring, article protection, and the statement of the extended version supporting side regarding both the name of the article, and the intro paragraph, a poll has been placed. The brief version supporting side is to keep the name of the article AND the intro paragraph free of the UN name (FYROM). Keep in mind that you can select more than one of the options (8! to the moment) that may suit you. Please participate in the vote and ask other editors you know to do so too. Increased participation can make the outcome of the vote as NPOV as possible.  NikoSilver  ^{(T) @ (C)} 16:46, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

Arvanitic

Hi, regarding this edit. How can you know something like that. There is no source confirming it, and it is highly unlikely. How many Arvanite villagers do you know who know what an ausbausprache is? Also, Arvanitic is a language on the Albanian branch on the Indo European language family. Either way, ausbauspache or not, it is still a form of Albanian, unless you are claiming that Arvanites view it as a language isolate. Please consider reverting yourself or rewording it so as to make clear that what the Arvanites resent is being associated with the Albanians, and that this means that they dislike their language being called Albanian, not that there are any linguistic implications, because this is absurd and impossible to prove. Thanks. --Telex 17:39, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

You said it yourself, Rexhep. The Arvanite villagers couldn't care less about their language's genetic classification. Their rejection of the term "Albanian" is purely a question of identity and implies nothing about Arvanitic's relationship to Albanian, which is undoubtedly close.--Theathenae 17:41, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

Rexhep? Yes, be that as it may, there is no source saying that Arvanitic is not Albanian. Why not use the wording of the 1995 report: although the [Arvanitic] community loathes its [the usage of the term Albanian to refer to their language] use. I've made a few edits, tell me what you think. --Telex 17:45, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

BTW do you have any idea if the term "Macedonia" was ever used officially in Ottoman times. There's a big gap on that at the article Macedonia (terminology). --Telex 17:55, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

Μην ξανακάνεις επαναφορά στο Aromanians, υποθέτω ξέρεις γιατί. Αυτός ο Greier δεν σταματάει ποτέ. Έχουν υπάρξει προβλήματα με αυτόν στο Vlachs of Serbia, στο John Hunyadi και στο Fustanella. --Telex 18:27, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
