• Macedonia (region) → Macedonia
• Macedonia → Macedonia (disambiguation)

– Three years after the Prespa agreement (and the renaming of the Republic of Macedonia to North Macedonia), I believe it's time to move this article to plain Macedonia. This article is a broad concept that covers all the major meanings of "Macedonia" listed on the dab page and many of the minor ones. (t · c) buidhe 11:09, 14 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Oppose? 😬 I think the dab page is still the safest bet to have at the basename. Paintspot Infez (talk) 17:02, 14 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose. Macedonia (region) still doesn't claim the crown title of the word 'Macedonia'. Despite the Prespa Agreement happening, there are still a lot of sources and searches referring the country only as 'Macedonia'. So I agree with Paintspot, it is good the way it is right now. — Tom^(T2ME) 17:21, 14 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose. I also agree with Paintspot. Egsan Bacon (talk) 00:03, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose move. Given the long-term precedent at WP:MOSMAC, any RM on Macedonia should have at least provided sources to show usage of the term. O.N.R. ^(talk) 18:23, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose. The kingdom of Alexander the Great is just as primary. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:57, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
