{{consensus|1=This RFC was complex and it took some time for us to close. We appreciate the community's patience while deliberations were being made. Furthermore, we would like to thank the community for its participation in this RfC and for the generally civil discussion. In accordance with the [[Special:Permalink/846258852#Macedonia_2:_Motion|directive from the Arbitration Committee in 2018]], we have considered only those comments accompanied by "a clear and reasonable rationale explained by reference to the principles of [[Wikipedia:Naming_conventions|naming conventions]] and of [[Wikipedia:disambiguation|disambiguation]]," and have disregarded comments that lacked such a rationale or were inconsistent with the principles of the [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view|neutral point of view]] policy or the [[Wikipedia:Reliable sources|reliable sources]] guideline. Following this directive, and in the exercise of our own judgment, we also accorded diminished weight to [[Wikipedia:Single-purpose accounts|single-purpose accounts]], the comments of which generally failed the test set forth by the Arbitration Committee. There is new consensus in this RfC that we have to accept as a community, a detailed summarization of which is given below:
{{cot|Detailed consensus}}
# '''Disambiguation''': What should be the entry for "Republic of Macedonia"/"North Macedonia"? Additionally, the following four entries are in the first section of the Macedonia disambiguation page (Macedonia most commonly refers to) ['''...'''] What should the order of these items be?
#: '''Option A''': "North Macedonia, formerly the Republic of Macedonia, a country of southeastern Europe"
#: The closing panel agrees that there is consensus for Option A. As many editors noted, this option is supported by policy, as it is the official ([[WP:OFFICIAL]]) and current short-form name ([[WP:CONCISE]]), and is commonly used within the universe of reliable sources. ([[WP:COMMON]]). The panel found many Option B comments to be not supported by policy.
#:The closing panel finds no clear consensus as to the ordering of articles on the disambiguation page, and therefore we default to retention of the ''status quo'' until a new consensus emerges.
# '''Nationality of people''': What should people from North Macedonia be called?
#: The closing panel finds '''no consensus''' to adopt a mandatory rule for how to refer to people from North Macedonia. However, there is a preference among non-SPA editors for Option B, and this option is also supported by both the universe of available sources ([[WP:COMMONNAME]]) as well as the principles of [[WP:OFFICIALNAME]] and [[WP:CONCISE]]. Therefore, use of "Macedonian(s)" to refer to people from North Macedonia should ''not'' be changed to "North Macedonian(s)" universally. However, the closing panel does find a consensus that "North Macedonian(s)" may be used in particular cases where necessary to avoid ambiguity or confusion; for example, in articles or sections of articles that discuss both Macedonians as a nationality and Macedonians as an ethnicity.
# '''State-associated and other public entities''': What term should be used when referring to state-associated entities, including governmental organisations and official ranks, as well as other public entities from North Macedonia as specified in Prespa agreement?
#: '''Option B''': Both "North Macedonian" and "... of North Macedonia", where a similar form would be used for other countries. e.g. the North Macedonian Government or the Government of North Macedonia.
#: The closing panel agrees that there is consensus for Option B. Furthermore, noting the fact that public entities are being retitled per [[Prespa agreement]], newer sources find "North Macedonia"-related terminology more common, and we have the existing policies of [[WP:NAMECHANGES]] and [[WP:COMMONNAME]].
# '''Adjective''': What adjective should be used to refer to other entities from North Macedonia, not specified above?
#: The closing panel finds '''no consensus''' to mandate the use of one adjective or the other at all times and in all places. Rather, the closing panel finds that the consensus, based on policy, is to follow [[WP:RS|the usage of the reliable sources]] with respect to the specific topic at issue. The usage of the reliable sources will often be dependent on context and [[WP:COMMONSENSE|common sense]] (for example, whether there is any meaningful risk of confusion or ambiguity exists in the specific context).
# '''Historical names''': What should be used in place of Macedonia and Republic of Macedonia in other articles about the periods and events between 1991 and 2019?
#: '''Option B''': Macedonia and Republic of Macedonia should still be used in historical articles, with an optional note similar to "now North Macedonia".
#: The closing panel agrees that there is a clear consensus for Option B. The terms "Macedonia" and "Republic of Macedonia" retain their meanings within the context of articles about the periods and events between 1991 and 2019 and thus, should not be changed, although an optional note such as "now North Macedonia" may be added where appropriate.
# '''Non-contentious housekeeping'''
#: '''Option A''':
#:*The main article should be titled North Macedonia
#:*North Macedonia and Republic of North Macedonia should be used in place of Macedonia and Republic of Macedonia in articles about the present.
#:*The language, ethnicity, and culture should be called Macedonian.
#: The closing panel agrees that there is a clear consensus for Option A.
# '''Redirects''': [[Northern Macedonia]] and [[Southern Macedonia]] are redirects that are potentially ambiguous terms. To what article(s) should these two titles redirect?
#: The closing panel agrees that there is a consensus for "Northern Macedonia" to redirect to [[North Macedonia]]. The closing panel finds no consensus as to the title to which "Southern Macedonia" should redirect. Therefore, we default to maintaining the ''status quo''—keeping the current redirect to [[Macedonia (Greece)]]—but without prejudice against a separate RfC being opened with respect to that specific redirect.

Due to the [[Prespa agreement]], the [[Republic of Macedonia]] has been renamed to the Republic of North Macedonia. In June 2018, the Arbitration Committee [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Macedonia 2#Motion (June 2018)|authorised]] an RFC to change [[Wikipedia:Naming conventions (Macedonia)|the naming conventions for Macedonia]]. Now that the name change has occurred, we should consider what the changes should be. 18:31, 15 February 2019 (UTC)

While originally I considered this issue to be trivial, {{u|Nyttend}} changed my mind by raising some excellent points. It certainly important that we get this right. However, now that I actually reviewed the issue, I have realized my preference is for Option B. To quote [[WP:D]], {{tq|[The third important aspect to disambiguation is ensuring] that a reader who searches for a topic using a particular term can get to the information on that topic quickly and easily, whichever of the possible topics it might be.}} It is my understanding that, for the moment, "Republic of Macedonia" does that even if it is no longer accurate.

What we don't know with as much certainty is how many ''of the readers who enter "Macedonia" in the search box'' really want to go to which of the four. There'd be an easy (if somewhat unconventional) way of measuring it: Create four temporary redirect pages (let's say "Macedonia dab redirect 1", "2" and so on), each redirecting to one of the four target articles, then pipe each of the four dab entries through one of these redirects. Make sure these redirects are not linked to from anywhere else. After a few weeks, look at the pageview statistics for just these four redirects. Those figures would tell you exactly how many readers went to the dab page and then chose which of the four targets.

*'''Option A''' As a solution to avoid the lengthy, though necessary use of the term "Macedonian/Citizen of the Republic of North Macedonia", exactly as neweurope.eu states ("New Europe will describe the country's citizens as North Macedonians hoping to avoid the term "Macedonian/Citizen of the Republic of North Macedonia"). "Macedonian" cannot be used alone to describe nationality anymore (in terms of citizenship, not ethnicity) and will cause further confusions with the ethnic group in English usage (since the geographic compound of the name). "North Macedonian(s)" stems from the country's new name and covers all citizens of North Macedonia regardless of ethnicity (including Albanians, Turks, etc. which make up a great percentage of the country's population, the reason the country is officially bilingual). Regardless of the Agreement, Wikipedia focuses on common usage, something that "North Macedonian(s)" is eventually coming to and has already been used to describe the citizens (e.g. deutschland.de article "Based on the Franco-German model").[[User:StevenHal|StevenHal]] ([[User talk:StevenHal|talk]]) 20:37, 15 February 2019 (UTC) <small>— [[User:StevenHal|StevenHal]] ([[User talk:StevenHal|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/StevenHal|contribs]]) has made [[Wikipedia:Single-purpose account|few or no other edits]] outside this topic. </small>
*'''Option B'''. It doesn't seem to be a mistake that "North Macedonian" is excluded from the Prespa agreement. It gives us "Macedonian/Citizen of North Macedonia" for nationality. From this, it seems reasonable to deduce that "Macedonian" is acceptable terminology. Regardless of this agreement, however, "Macedonian" is now (and for the foreseeable future) the most common usage. If there is any ambiguity, which should be very limited since there is no other Macedonian nationality, "North" can be added. --[[User:Local hero|<

Separately, I also don't like the idea of picking Option B ''for now.'' Are commenters we propose that seriously considering we will be willing to do this all over again? ''When'' does it stop being "for now" and when it start being "forever"? I can't wrap my head around that. Let's just call a spade a spade. It would be so odd if I said: "they are from North Macedonia; that makes them North Macedonian... ''for now''." I don't get why saying that the citizens of North Macedonia are called Macedonians "for now" makes any bit of sense.

:::Parents and grandparents are from the old country, i'm an Aussie :) . But back to this, really there has not been an issue regarding the use of the word Macedonian except among certain fringe elements of the Albanian public or politicians. The big Albanian parties supported the agreement in whole and opposition came from fringe firebrands like Ziadin Sela who a few years ago got a few knocks to the face during the storming of parliament due to his calls for federation and other statements challenging the cohesion of the state etc. Interestingly he has ceased with those these days. Anyway post 2001, Albanians have been largely been integrated into the country and its civic and political life. Sure there are issues, but they overall relate to bread and butter issues of employment and corruption in the country. Simple terminology is ok for here. We have had Macedonian work fine for many years now with no complaints. The two countries struck an agreement and it provides for the formula we use here. Why make it cumbersome and complex?[[User:Resnjari|Resnjari]] ([[User talk:Resnjari|talk]]) 15:54, 19 February 2019 (UTC)
::::{{tq|Why make it cumbersome and complex?}} Actually the Prespa Agreement isn't helping us much when it comes to making the "Macedonian/Citizen of North Macedonia" (unbreakable, undividable) into something more manageable that can be used in Wikipedia for encyclopedic terms. We are called to choose a short form for it while taking in account that the country to which they are citizens, is now called North Macedonia, not Macedonia. --- <span style="text-shadow:#CCC 0.1em 0.3em 0.3em; font-family: Trebuchet MS">[[User:SilentResident|❖ ''SilentResident'' ❖]] <sup>([[User talk:SilentResident|talk ✉]] | [[Special:Contributions/SilentResident|contribs ✎]])</sup></span> 02:22, 20 February 2019 (UTC)

*I've noticed a suspicious influx of biased users lately (i.e. "MacedonianBoy", "Македонец", "MacedońskaKrewetka" to name a few) contributing to this discussion. I obviously have no problem with people from North Macedonia voicing their opinion on this matter, but this should be definitely taken to account ultimately, as opinions are expressed more emotionally rather than logically. I also find it a bit misleading, especially in this nationality discussion, people stating "Macedonian per Prespa Agreement" as this is strikingly false as the Prespa Agreement changed the nationality FROM "Macedonian", and NOT TO "Macedonian". In reality neither "Macedonian" nor "North Macedonian" are officially correct; the real debate here, is as to what is more practical, logical, and easier for people to grasp, whilst accurate. That, in my opinion, is "North Macedonian" for consistency reasons, as well as differentiating between the different peoples of the region of Macedonia, as well as between citizens of North Macedonia (including ethnic minorities) and ethnic Macedonians, something that could create awful confusions if the nationality remains (CONTRARY to the Prespa Agreement) simply "Macedonian". --[[User:StevenHal|StevenHal]] ([[User talk:StevenHal|talk]]) 15:38, 20 February 2019 (UTC)

* '''Option C'''. The Prespa agreement may prescribe the possessive construction ("of North Macedonia") here, but having only that is syntactically far too restrictive to be linguistically viable (we couldn't even write a straightforward sentence about what happened at Prespa itself if we took it at face value: "The Greek and Macedonian prime ministers made an agreement"; are we really going to distort that to "the Greek prime minister and the one of North Macedonia"?). If we are going to use adjectives (and I mean real adjectives, not the "of" constructions the agreement falsely describes as such), then there's no reason not to use the same adjective as in all the other contexts (nationality etc.), i.e. plain "Macedonian". This, too, is in line with what seems to be the emerging practice of outside reliable sources (which is ultimately the sole criterion we have, not the Prescriptions of the Prespa agreement). [[User:Future Perfect at Sunrise|Fut.Perf.]] [[User talk:Future Perfect at Sunrise|☼]] 19:15, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
* '''Option B''': The use of North Macedonian is already emerging in reliable media usage, and not allowing Wikipedia to utilise it as an alternative to 'of North Macedonia' is restrictive. Nationality does not apply to state-sponsored entities, since state-entities are not people. There is also precedent on Wikipedia for the natural adjectival form of names: someone from XYZia is an XYZian. This would also help avoid confusion with the other definitions of 'Macedonian'. --[[User:Philly boy92|Michail]] <small>([[User talk:Philly boy92|blah]])</small> 19:22, 15 February 2019 (UTC)

* '''Option B'''. Using Opt. A is no longer accurate, and was always innately ambiguous and confusing. Option C isn't really viable, since "Macedonian", even if confined to modern-day people, is a broader ethnonym and isn't limited to people living in that country. There will be cause to use it, but not to specifically refer to North Macedonia. <span style="white-space:nowrap;font-family:'Trebuchet MS'"> — [[User:SMcCandlish|'''SMcCandlish''']] [[User talk:SMcCandlish|☏]] [[Special:Contributions/SMcCandlish|¢]] 😼 </span> 04:13, 19 February 2019 (UTC)
* '''Option A''' The agreement does not mention 'North Macedonian', which should apply for the first of the following cases, while the others might not refer to the country. Firstly, for non-public entities (e.g. sport clubs, music bands, companies, associations etc.), there is also an additional argument that no other country-related adjective including the term 'Macedonian' is used on the English Wikipedia (e.g. [[OFC Pirin Blagoevgrad]] and [[Koza Mostra]] are described as Bulgarian and Greek but not Macedonian football club and music band, respectively). Secondly, for objects originating from the territory but somehow linked to the country (e.g. traditional food, authentic products etc.), they generally pre-date the modern country and are associated with the entire region of Macedonia (e.g. [[Pastrmajlija]] is a traditional dish from the region of Macedonia that was also prepared in the past). Thirdly, for the rare use of adjectives describing landforms and other grographic terms, they might also be associated with the entire region of Macedonia (e.g. [[Jakupica]] is a Macedonian mountain because it is entirely located within the region of Macedonia).--[[User:Kiril Simeonovski|Kiril Simeonovski]] ([[User talk:Kiril Simeonovski|talk]]) 12:47, 19 February 2019 (UTC)

*** I agree with {{Re|Antondimak}} here. Even tough my preference goes toward using ''North Macedonia'' most of the time, as we would say ''Byzantine Empire'', or ''Cambodia'' even for the period when this country renamed itself [[Democratic Kampuchea|Kampuchea]], when it is worth referring to a historical name ''it should be the historical name used in context'', not systematically "Macedonia" or "Republic of Macedonia".

** No change to my vote. And no, we are definitely ''not'' going to retroactively reintroduce "Former Yugoslav". That was never the "common name", and the previous RfC established a clear consensus that "common name" applies across all domains and that we don't follow domain-specific exceptions. The common name pre-2019 was "Macedonia" and nothing else, and there's no reason to change that approach now. [[User:Future Perfect at Sunrise|Fut.Perf.]] [[User talk:Future Perfect at Sunrise|☼]] 21:10, 15 March 2019 (UTC)
*** My point is that "Macedonia" isn't the common name. The common name is "North Macedonia". If we are going to use the official name at the time, then we should use "Macedonia" in most contexts, and "fYRoM" for the very limited subset where it was official. I however propose to use the currect common name, that being "North Macedonia", retroactively, as we have done for almost all other cases where we are dealing with a defunct name, and as is the current practice of the government of North Macedonia, which itself uses the term retroactively. The Eurovision example where the official entry was under "fYRoM" was just an example where using "Macedonia" retroactively would be most ninsensical. We would be using "Macedonia" for the country commonly and officially called "North Macedonia" and entered into a competition under the name "fYRoM". --[[User:Antondimak|Antondimak]] ([[User talk:Antondimak|talk]]) 11:35, 16 March 2019 (UTC)
