Headline text
Just wish to add that the word Slav has never ,to my knowledge, been used in a derogatory manner by Greeks. On the other hand there are other words defining almost all of Greece's neibourging nations (Turk, Bulgarian,Albanian, Skopjan) that in Greek have a negative meaning. I think that Greeks do realize that the word Slav describes a vast variety of very different people. (UNSIGNED)

Furhtemore in a recent visit to ...(how to say it here, bummer)....... "Upper Macedonia"... it is true i did sense that this term (Slav) is beeing used as a part of the "political question". This of course a debate not closely related to reality. Nevertheless if there would be such a time when people started feeling that the word Slav is derogative and unfitting, this would be a very a unfortunate turn of events indeed. By cutting of the people from their cultural legacy (if that is even possible) nothing good can be achieved. And lets face it. The Modern Macedonians of the region are above anything else, of slavish linquistic, cultural and ethnic backround. I dont really consider that as something worth debating about. Furthemore i dont see how it is possible for the people of "Macedonia" to become in the future oblivius of this fact. Certainly not because of those nasty Greeks and their name-calling. If i was of Slav heritage i would be bloody proud about it not insulted. Anyway i dont consider people naive, i do undestand that this is part of another agenda but i suggest we leave politics and false pretences of the discussion. (Haas K. D. 02:17, 21 July 2006 (UTC))


 * Dear Mr. Hass, you can name the country, as its citizens name it: Republic of Macedonia. This is sufficiently different from "Greek Province of Macedonia", or "Pirin Macedonia", so there is no danger of confusion.


 * Yes, modern Macedonians surely are of slavic lignuistic and cultural background. So are Srbs, and Buglarians, and Polish and Russians... Does anyone call them Slavo-Rus, or Slavo-Serb or Slavo-Polish? No. Everyone respects the name that any of these nations selected for themselves. Then why do you think it should be acceptable for us to let others name us: Slavo-Macedonian? It is not.


 * We are indeed proud of our Slavic heritage. Bible was first translated in 863ad using exactly the dialects from Macedonia (the area of Salonica, today's Thessaloniki). Macedonia was one of the first and most prominent centers of the Slavonic literacy. The Church Slavonic language, based on the Salonica dialect, was the standard language for all slavic nations (half of the European population) until well into the 19 century. --Filip M 01:14, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

Hi Filip, you've been reported for a 3RR violation at Slavic translations of the Bible and have been blocked from editing for 24 hours. Please take the time to review WP:3RR for future reference, and when you come back, try to resolve disagreements on the talk page. Cheers, SlimVirgin (talk) 14:51, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Hi
About the sentence I have two solutions - we might say either "in Bulgaria" or "by Bulgarians". Cause nobody in Bulgaria (with at least Primary education) thinks otherwise. Cheers. -- L a v e o l  T 21:08, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

Ok. Lets keep the current "in Bulgaria". --Filip M 00:18, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Filip M. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Filip M~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:53, 19 March 2015 (UTC)
