Macedonia (terminology)[edit]

Notified: [2], 9 Dec 2022

Review section[edit]

I am nominating this featured article for review because of sourcing issues and a needs update banner. See the talk page notice for more info. Last FAR in 2009. (t · c) buidhe 03:15, 29 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Just passing through: does anyone know what this sentence is trying to say? "Demographically, it is mainly inhabited by four ethnic groups, three of which self-identify as Macedonians: two, a Bulgarian and a Greek one at a regional level, while a third ethnic Macedonian one at a national level." For starters, who is the fourth ethnic group? It seems that something got removed at some point (though the article has been like this for years.) Zagalejo (talk) 15:22, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That sentence did jump out at me as unnecessarily confusing. (t · c) buidhe 15:41, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The fourth ethnic group should be Albanians. The two groups identifying as Macedonian on a regional level are the Greeks and the Bulgarians, the one identifying as Macedonian on a national level is that of the Slavic Macedonians, North Macedonia's main ethnic group. It's confusing but that's what it means. Antondimak (talk) 09:05, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
