Hey Niko, I'd really like thank you for taking the time to vote at my RfA. I withdrew due to certain controversies, but I appreciated your vote and hope to see you here in the future. Thanks again. --Khoikhoi 05:15, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

Ciao
Scusa se ti rispondo solo ora, ma ho notato adesso il tuo messaggio. Effettivamente sarebbe stato troppo tardi, in quanto avevo già mandato l'avviso di violazione prima di scrivere quel messaggio. Comunque per un disguido tecnico è stato fortunato e non ha avuto nessun blocco, dunque non ha nulla di cui lamentarsi. Il tenore del suo messaggio a Latinus mi aveva un po irritato, devo dire, con quella che appariva come la riendicazione di un suo diritto ad infrangere le regole se si riteneva nel giusto. --Aldux 11:45, 29 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Di nuovo io! :-) Riguardo alla paura che svaniscano tutte le differenze che rendono un paese interessante, c'è poco che possa dire: nazionalismo e cosmopolitismo si sono sempre contrapposti, certo anch'io come te amo la mia terra e spero che non diventi uguale a tutte le altre. Amare il proprio paese non è essere nazionalisti; questo lo si diventa quanto si sostiene le azioni del proprio paese indiscriminatamente, senza giudicare indipendentemente ciò che è giusto e ciò che è sbagliato. Così la vedo io.
 * Quanto al secondo punto, ciò che definisce una lingua é l'essere dotato di una codificazione e di una letteratura distinta; inoltre pare vi siano più differenze che fra serbo e croato, e in genere i linguisti l'accettano come una lingua distinta. In genere penso che tu dia troppa importanza a gente come l'editore Macedonia, un canadese che si è costruito un mondo tagliato su misura dei suoi sogni; mentre gli slavi macedoni che vivono in Macedonia sono (quasi sempre) molto più ragionenevoli. Salutoni!--Aldux 23:16, 31 March 2006 (UTC)


 * No, no!!! Mi hai frainteso; non penso assolutamente che tu sia un nazionalista, figuriamoci poi uno di quelli estremi e sciovinisti! Volevo soltanto descrivere un pericolo possibile causato dal nazionalismo, per mostrare la necessità del giusto mezzo, che concili universale e particolare evitando tanto Scilla (il nazionalismo sciovinistico) che Cariddi (la globalizzazione che appiattisce tutto). Quanto all'ultima domanda, personalmente non ho visto gruppi di editori "internazionali" contrapporsi a quelli "nazionali"; ci sono singoli che mettono in campo le loro rispettive idee. Ciao :-)--Aldux 22:30, 3 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Ho dato una occhiata alla talk, però non riesco ancora a vedere questa grande cospirazione, nemmeno nella talk che mi hai indicato . La stragrande maggioranza dei partecipanti sono sono Greci e Macedoni; i non-balcanici (gli "impartial third") sono apparentemente sei: Jonathunder, Alex Bakharev, Khoikhoi, High Elf, ChrisO. A me sembra che si siano divisi a metà, con alcuni convinti che sarebbe opportuno inserire FYROM nella testa, altri che ci debba restare solo RoM. Personalmente inclino per la versione proposta di Chris. Comunque, per ora l'articolo è bloccato, dunque nessuno potrà metterci mano. Ciao.--Aldux 18:11, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

Template substing
Hey; I was just going through and substing some user warning templates, and I noticed that at least a couple of them were left by you. See template substitution for more on this, but the basic idea is, you just add instead of  and the text of the NPA warning gets permanently added to the page, instead of having to load from the template page every time someone views it. Also, you don't have to include the Template: in your links; and  do the same thing. There's no reason not to do it, and eases the load on the servers. Mangojuice 05:24, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

To simplify. Just do whenever you use a template, espec. on a user warning page. Thanks! Mangojuice 12:46, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

FYROM debate
Hi, I am looking at the discussion, but I can't really get into it. My personal opinion is that both Republic of Macedonia and FYROM must be present in the article, because they are used as formal names in different occasions. I don't mind the wording, but I'd like to be cleared out which name in which case is used. I couldn't quite grasp what I have to look at --Komitata 20:58, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

You know, Im getting really tired of Bitola. How on earth is "FYROM nationals" a personal attack - if it appears on the Greek Embassy in Washington DC's website, then we can be certain it's not a personal attack. Not to mention that according to his logic, the entire page List of UAE Nationals is an attack page. Edwy (talk) 11:32, 9 April 2006 (UTC)


 * No I won't, I don't see why you have to cling to that position of yours. I can call them "Macedonians" when needed without the cosmos ending. In my opinion, the three of you are equally disruptive and childish. Edwy (talk) 11:37, 9 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Bitola is just trying to push his agenda. There was no problem with Fyromians as well. He just spins it as if it was. If he insists on this matter, I'll be more than happy to go to mediation, even arbitration for that matter. I'm not a little child to be scared by any report. And yes I'm determined and I will not go further back even an inch. If it results in me getting disciplined, it's worth it. The issue is far more important. --Avg 11:39, 9 April 2006 (UTC)

Poll
Yeah, I did notice after I made my comment actually; I think that the page should probably be archived to include just the poll to be honest. I think a fewer smaller polls - lasting a week each - to solve the individual issues could have sorted it out myself; but there you go ;) Robdurbar 16:20, 11 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Hello; I wouldn't worry about those votes which support other options (and indirectly oppose others) – hence approval voting. The rule is intended to prohibit votes that explicity oppose any single option directly (e.g., Oppose bla, bla).  For example, take a glance at the Talk:Republic of Ireland name poll (recently administered) for an example of what the rules are meant to prevent ... in that case, opposing votes were disallowed.  I hope this helps. E Pluribus Anthony | talk | 19:13, 11 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the feedback; I'll keep it in mind. Note that this vote explicitly links to and indicates approval voting upfront, so I think it's clear already.  (This clarity is something I overlooked with the the RoI poll, though.)  And I think the poll has garnered substantial support to this point... so much so that it may be opportune to close it early, but more input solidifies a preferred option.  And if individuals cannot or will not overcome the hurdles they identify, just as we are trying to, then it perhaps is better that they remain silent or in abstention. E Pluribus Anthony | talk | 19:35, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Republic of Macedonia as blog
Talk:Republic of Macedonia and the Talk pages of a lot of the related articles have been way too active for me to really follow at this point. It's true that it wasn't that long ago that I was encouraging people to use the Talk page more and to edit war less. I'm not convinced that the current level of Talk page activity represents an increased interest in improving the article collaboratively, however; I'm concerned that polls can be needlessly divisive on top of the concerns I raised about them at Talk:Republic of Macedonia.

In any case, we shall see how things develop. In spite of my "more heat than light" worries, I am optimistic that more attention to these articles will lead to better thinking about them in the long run and thereby to eventual improvement. Jkelly 17:14, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

Google test
I was thinking that the easiest and most accurate google test should be:

Option 1: "republic of macedonia" -"former yugoslav republic of macedonia" 1.75M results

Option 2: "former yugoslav republic of macedonia" 4.47M results

As simple as that. I can't think of any flaw (each option automatically cancels the other). What do you think? --Avg 17:58, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

Macedonia
Vuoi dire la disputa a Macedon, vero? Se c'è qualcuno che è d'accordo che quella sia una disputa futile e vuota, sono io. Il problema secondo me è che gli editori macedoni, sia greci che slavi, hanno caricato questo simbolo di significati che non è detto abbia mai avuto. In realtà non si può dire con certezza che fosse simbolo dell'antico stato macedone. Io devo poi tenere in considerazione i lettori non balcanici, per cui un copyright su una stella vecchia di 2000 anni significa poco. Inoltre devo considerare se abbia senso metterlo su un articolo di storia antica; a me stona come un'intromissione di dispute contemporanee che non dovrebbero toccare questo articolo. Detto questo, amico mio, ti saluto. Ciao! :-)--Aldux 11:48, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

Your sig
This is a really, really trivial thing, so please ignore it if you like. :-)

I noticed that you use the font tag in your sig in order to change colours. Since you're not using any of the abilities that are specific to the font tag and it's deprecated anyway, you might consider changing it to span. The span tag's purpose is for doing exactly what you're using the font tag for right now.

You could replace the last use of font as well with &lt;small&gt;(text)&lt;small&gt;, but since the font tag and modern tags like big and small handle sizes differently you might not like that for æsthetic reasons. Cheers! &mdash; Saxifrage ✎ 22:28, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

How does this look?


 * N i k o S il v e r  (T) @ (C)

It saves you 38 characters in the name portion, and 8 characters in the superscripted portion. It's still pretty heavyweight though, at 444 characters. Granted, the superscripting looks different when using small instead of <tt>font size=-2</tt>, so you might want to keep that part the same. If you do though, take the quote marks out from around the "-2" since the spec doesn't require them for values that contain no spaces (like numbers). There's not much more optimisation that I can think of: I just pulled out unnecessary characters and spaces where the HTML and CSS specs don't require them, changed "font" to "span" (no savings there), and got rid of a closing font tag that I don't think had a matching opening tag.

Another route might be to make the background a carefully-crafted image with the right gradient that is stretched to fit the bounding-box of the text with CSS. It'd be shorter in code (and so database), but would require uploading an image for personal use (and I don't know what Wikipedia thinks of that). &mdash; Saxifrage ✎ 20:36, 15 April 2006 (UTC)


 * You're welcome! I took at look at the bolding before and I don't think there's any way around that. You could break the nesting rule and it will work in most browsers, but how many it will break in I don't know. The number is sure to increase as time goes on. &mdash; Saxifrage ✎ 05:58, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

Special frinedship...
You'll find a lot about the Orthodox friendship in question on the neo-byzantine site. It's really funny if you look at the history. The Byzantines at times protected and at times oppressed the Serbs; while the Serbs eventually would rebel and take Roman lands one-by-one. Stefan Nemanja is believed to have conducted expulsions of Greeks from Zeta. Yet in all wars, there was a strange (call it morbid, if you like) forgiveness and tolerance; one morning a Greek calls the Serb a slave and the Serb hits him, the next 5 years, they're best friends. Another strange thing is that the Serbs gave the Byzantine Empire the last hit before the Turks under Stefan Dusan, but in reality created an Empire equal from Greeks and Serbs alike.

you speak english, but that doesnt mean you are english right? morrocans speak french too, but that doesnt mean they are french. think about that my friend:) and besides that, the genetic research were talking about, isnt some proof or has not to be the truth, it is just a reference wich is good to be referred too, i never added the article on a wikipage without saying that it is not desputed. wether its the truth or not, wether they believe the article is to be decided by the wikiusers for themselves. a page is good if it has the views of all sides mentioned, not just one side. greetings--Makedonia 20:47, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

Macedonians
Hi Niko. If I get it right, you're worried by this, believe me, don't worry; it's such crap that nobody takes it seriously, and yes, I do believe it's highly nationalistic stuff. Ethnicity is not determinated by blood, but by a common tradition and history. Ciao!--Aldux 21:30, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

Don't worry about this pseudo-research, it's an old hoax which has been openly ridiculed. This is not the research of Antonio Arnaiz-Villena by the way, it's a research made by some FYROM individuals who manipulate the original Spanish paper in order to propagate what you just read (their names are marked). Arnaiz-Villena's research has not a single mention of the word "Macedonian", and in the case of the Greeks, it pretty much states the opposite of the FYROMian version. In any case, if somebody tries to pass this anywhere in wikipedia, someone should let me know. Miskin 20:34, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Your lovely note
Thanks for your remarks on my talk page, I'll let you know what mark I get. - FrancisTyers 07:49, 25 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Sorry, i should have added a smiley on the end of that ;)

In response to your two questions:


 * "fortunately"??? Why not unfortunately? Who is the judge of that?
 * Fortunately &mdash; because its really fucking retarded. Boring. Old hat. The level of puerility (not sure if thats a word) is pretty much equal to the argument over -ize and -ise in American/English English. Fortunately that argument isn't discussed much. If it was discussed with a similar level of vitriol as the Macedonian question it would be down right hilarious. Danzig/Gdansk is another example.


 * "only"??? Is this accurate? Is it complete?
 * Only &mdash; If Greece didn't care about it no-one else would. The majority of people couldn't give a shit. I don't know one person to whom the matter is controversial &mdash; who would even bother to contribute to the debate in such a nationalistic way as you Greeks do. Only is a good characterisation &mdash; not to say you couldn't find one English (or whatever other nationality) guy, but I doubt you could find 100.

I don't see what isn't funny about it. Just because I'm making fun of your fruity nationalist ideas. Pretty much everyone I know thinks the naming dispute is either ridiculous to the point of laughter or just plain retarded. We made jokes about it in class. Nationalism is funny. Really, seriously, it is funny. I might get a note on my mark sheet about it, "you shouldn't really do this" etc, "bad style" or something but it won't make a difference to my mark, and I'm 90% sure that they'll laugh or chuckle about it when reading. I like to add a bit of humour to my essays, I find on average it gets me higher marks. You should see the one I did on software patents in the style of a Greek dialogue...

I'm going to explain it because I value your contributions, you at least have a sense of humour about this issue. The main points I was making in the essay was that "Macedonian is a language because the Macedonians say it is" and "Nationalism is retarded whoever it comes from". If you didn't get that then either you didn't read it or were blinded by your ideology.

That is a sincere explanation. - FrancisTyers 12:11, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

 * I guess thats what separates nationalists from non-nationalists. I seriously couldn't give two hoots if the Koreans want King Arthur, let them have him. As a side note, in Brittany they claim King Arthur as their own. I've been to his castle. It was quite nice, a pleasant walk in the forest. I just don't put any significance on national identity really. If the Americans want to claim Henry VIII as their own I don't care. The same goes for the Russians and their plot to steal Boadicea. I just don't care. These people belong to all of humanity.


 * I object to falsifying history, which is what the fruity Macedonian nationalists are doing, but I think that seriously, you should concentrate on their stupid un-History instead of this crazy little naming dispute. On pretty much everything except the naming dispute I side with Greece (and history). I really think the naming dispute thing damages your whole case, it makes you seem irrational. If I was doing a history essay I would certainly take the piss out of the Macedonians...


 * I probably would reject my essay as biased too, but then look at the list of references I have. There's plenty useful there. In fact, some of them are more biased than me &mdash; but they aren't doing it as a joke :) By the way, the joke is only referring to the naming dispute, not the whole falsifying history thing.

To be honest, it doesn't surprise me or bother me that much, there are assholes on both sides. User:FlavrSavr, this guy for example seems eminently reasonable, I saw another guy Greek, but his name escapes me, who said something along the lines of "Alexander the Great and all these people belong to all of humanity", but I can't find the exact quote. Thats pretty reasonable too. For every User:Macedonia there is a User:Asteraki :) And about getting frustrated... why I guess they get damned frustrated too. With regards to my vote... I feel honoured to be on the same side as User:Dcabrilo and User:FlavrSavr, in an "ironic?" turn... User:Macedonia has not voted! :)) Perhaps he can't read ? To conclude, there are moderates on both sides, you just have to look hard to find them because of the brainless nationalist ideology both sides have been brought up in. - FrancisTyers 12:16, 26 April 2006 (UTC)


 * User:Michalis Famelis that was the Greek guy. By the way, you're only an asshole with respect to the naming dispute, pretty reasonable otherwise. I guess User:FlavrSavr just got fed up with the constant bickering, I'm sure he isn't forever yours ;) - FrancisTyers 13:08, 26 April 2006 (UTC)


 * 1) WP:IAR
 * 2) I hate political correctness &mdash; I think you probably already guessed this ;)
 * 3) I don't care if you want to call it FY Republic of Macedonia &mdash; only two letters difference &mdash; it isn't what they self describe themselves as. The name of the country is "Republic of Macedonia", if all those politically correct, "oh no it isn't a genocide", organisations want to call it something else then fine. Fortunately on Wikipedia we can go with common sense. "Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia" is not common sense in any definition of the words. Besides, Republic of Macedonia is already disambiguating... there is only one Republic of Macedonia, and its borders are well defined. We have a Republic of Ireland, also with well defined borders inside a larger Ireland. We have a Republic of Korea inside a greater Korea. I could go on.... I bet if they had such large naming disputes it would be pretty damned boring too.
 * 4) How about renaming the region in Greece, Greek Macedonia &mdash; that would be pretty disambiguating. Hell we could go the whole hog and have Macedonian Slav Macedonia, Greek and or Hellenic Macedonia and Bulgarian Macedonia not forgetting Albanian Macedonia &mdash; unfortunately that proposal is bullshit because getting any three countries to agree on any one thing in the Balkans is like getting blood from a stone I don't know where that expression comes from &mdash; maybe its Greek ;)

- FrancisTyers 13:44, 26 April 2006 (UTC)


 * You're making it too easy! a of course. Seriously, there are roughly no limits to my support for self-identification. If they wanted to name their country "The Jews did 9/11" I would have no complaints. They'd be idiots, and to be honest most people would still just continue calling them Iran. Much like whatever name they finally come up with, the chances are that people will still refer to Macedonia as being the Republic of. After all, there is only one country called Macedonia. You should rename the Macedonia in Greece to "Southern Macedonia", afterall, it isn't a country, its only a region. See Ireland, Republic of Ireland, Northern Ireland for precedent. I really think that it is entirely irrational, nationalist ideology... did you see my test btw? Read the Orwell essay on the matter also, its really quite good. We all harbour nationalist ideas yes even me! &mdash; and not just English, I've experienced some transferred nationalist ideas for the Kurds &mdash; Just when I come accross myself thinking about them I try to KILL THEM WITH FIRE (in a metaphorical sense) you just let them pother out! - FrancisTyers 15:38, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

 * Telex, since you invited me here, my opinion is that you are wrong! You have forgotten to take into account in your thoughts the ...ethnic cleansing alternative of the non-MacSlav populations, after such unification! Maybe that's what Boris meant in that comment of his?


 * PS Check Rainbow Party vs Rainbow party, I find it hillarious! N i k o S il v e r   (T) @ (C) 15:40, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

You're right. In the 1911 census, 350,000 Greeks and 246,000 Bulgarians in the city of Bitola/Manastir, today in the Republic of Macedonia. The Macedonian government claims there are no Greeks there today. To you think they were subject to ethnic cleansing by the communist authorities of the Socialist Republic of Macedonia? Who knows? ;-) Telex 15:45, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

Telex, first of all, I would tend to agree, but unfortunately you can't go simply on votes for nationalist parties alone. They may have some really bad policies also &mdash; not to mention their name sucks. For example, Plaid Cymru is a minority party in Wales, but that does not mean that the majority of Welsh people don't consider themselves Welsh, nor that the majority wouldn't support independence under more favourable conditions. The same goes for the Scottish Nationalist Party in Scotland. I don't think that the situation is as black and white as you make it out to be. Not that I agree with the general proposition of a "Unified" Macedonia necessarily. To be honest I think it would probably cause more problems than it solves. Not to mention nationalism and national identity is tedious.

In response to your more recent comment, I think you misuse the phrase "ethnic cleansing". I suspect that the Macedonians have done no worse to their ethnic minorities than the Greeks have done to theirs. This is a definate case of pot calling the kettle black. Yugoslavia was in many ways a far more tolerant state than Greece. But as I said don't get me started on it. - FrancisTyers 15:56, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

Maybe, let's not forget that not everyone votes (of course who would you vote for - the parties that deny your ethnicity by fabricating other names or the parties which offer you recognition). Here are some figures by the Helsinki Minority Rights Group - Greece (these people are known to inflate numbers) :
 * Local authorities have acknowledged the presence of some 100,000 “Slavophones,” while researchers have given twice as high as estimate (200,000). However, those with a Macedonian national identity can be estimated to between 10,000-30,000. Indeed, the political party “Rainbow” which was created in 1994 and has campaigned for the recognition of a national Macedonian minority, received 7,300 votes in 1994 and 5,000 in 1999, two elections it contested alone: these figures correspond to some 7,000-10,000 citizens of all (not just voting) ages. One can estimate that besides this “hard core” there may be other citizens voting for mainstream parties that also espouse this identity, hence the above estimate.

This document however fails to account for the fact that the Rainbow Party supports other social issues such as gay rights and that the vast majority of votes come from islands in southern Greece (well away of Macedonia), so it's possible that the number of actual Macedonians voting there are even less. In the latest (European) elections (2004), they got 6.176 altogether with 2,955 (click and count) in Greek Macedonia. So its perfectly possible that the people voting for them aren't even Macedonians. You can't really know without a census (sometimes even with a census). The latest census in the Bulgarian part of Macedonia found 3,117 Macedonians. This doesn't stop Macedonian nationalists claiming even higher numbers. Telex 16:13, 27 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Francis, I agree in most of your comments. However, I don't see where you disagree with Telex's first post, and with me! I mean, you accept (if I understood right):


 * 1) Unified Mk would be bad
 * 2) MacSlavs have done bad things to their ethnic minorities
 * ...but you show disagreement in:


 * 1) Rainbow party (sorry -this joke never gets old) Rainbow Party being representative of the true population of MacSlavs in Greece (i.e. what would that be? source? Telex has one above.)
 * 2) SFRJ being more tolerant compared to Greece (no opinion here -irrelevant?)
 * I think this whole discussion has to do with waaay back in the past, when the international community was much more tolerant in certain practices (especially when they were backed up by treaties), which doesn't apply to the Greece of today (at least in a notable extent). It may though apply to other neighbours... Correct?  N i k o S il v e r   (T) @ (C) 16:20, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

With regard to "3", I said that with regard to the election results yes the Rainbow party (lol) is not representative, but my point was that this is not indicative of nationalist opinion. With regard to point "4", I'd be more inclined to believe it if Greece was more tolerant today. On the whole, I think it somewhere between Turkey (as in slightly better) and France (as in slightly worse), both very insecure about their national identities. Basically you are saying that Greece should be excused from the injustice against its ethnic minorities because it was in the past. I don't agree, should the UK be excused its colonial excesses because they were in the past? No. Besides, why are we having this discussion on Serbianas talk page? - FrancisTyers 16:31, 27 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Francis, no! For Christ's shake! For "3" ok, but look at (even the negative) Helsinki! For "4" NO excuses! It was just (a)backed up by treaties (b)not such a big fault (with that day's standards). For TODAY, I disagree. Now transfer whatever you want in my talk page coz this guy is gonna go bananas when he reads all this stuff!  N i k o S il v e r   (T) @ (C) 16:39, 27 April 2006 (UTC)


 * SFRJ was not more tolerant. The Albanians in the Socialist Republic of Macedonia were banned from having more than two children in 1988 (if that's not population control, then I don't know what is). Greece (or any neighbour - even the paranoid regime of Enver Hoxha) has never done anything like that (I'm not counting Turkey - I don't know much about them). Telex 16:24, 27 April 2006 (UTC)


 * As I said, I'm not going into it. You obviously have a poor grasp of history. Its sad that you can't accept it though :( - FrancisTyers 16:31, 27 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Accept what exactly? Greece does indeed have its closet skeletons, but this is no reason to turn a blind eye to everyone else's (magnitude is relevant here). The only reason for Greece's ethnic composition today is the influx of Greek refugees from abroad (Ukraine, Turkey (what was left of them), Albania, Bulgaria) and the habit of deporting the "undesirables". The Muslim Cham Albanians were deported in the 1940s (Cham Albanians), the Bulgarians/Macedonians were deported in the 1920s (Treaty of Neuilly - if under this treaty they were deported, how are they still there?), the Turks were deported in the 1920s (except in Western Thrace - Treaty of Lausanne). Greece generally avoided massacres, quite unlike most of its neighbours. Telex 16:42, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

Anyway, even if Francis is right about the Rainbow Party's votes, even using the largest estimate (200,000 Macedonians in Greece), in the hypothetical United Ethnic Macedonia, Greeks would still be the majority. Telex 17:03, 27 April 2006 (UTC)


 * My impression from the (negative) source you presented is that there are some 10-20,000 MacSlavs TOPS. I haven't met anyone though, and I cooperate a lot with Macedonians (that is Greek and Slav Macedonians -in both countries). N i k o S il v e r   (T) @ (C) 17:07, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

I think a Balkan Federation would be a good idea, then all other Balkan countries would be able to join the EU simply by uniting with Greece (that's how East Germany joined - by uniting with West Germany) - or a Balkan Union to become more influental than the EU (?). In the First Balkan War, the Balkan states (alliance) were a success. To hell with nationalism - let's climb the hierarchy to UN Security Council membership this way ;-) Telex 17:13, 27 April 2006 (UTC)


 * I really don't want to comment on that. Plus I have to go. I'll just paste my edit conflict:
 * For this comment of Francis:
 * "— not to mention their name sucks"
 * ...there is no parallel in Greek, that would suck(<-great choice of words!) "Ouranio Toxo" is generally something vere-very beautiful and signifies peace! It is the other way around: People WOULD vote for it because it's beautiful!
 * You can continue here if you want, I'll catch up later. Bye for now... N i k o S il v e r   (T) @ (C) 17:07, 27 April 2006 (UTC)


 * How successful the Balkan alliance of 1912 was is a can of worms that I think should stay closed. Parallel to the alliance on the surface there were some under-the-table dealings. See what happened a year later, enough said. FunkyFly 22:35, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
