Based narrative.:chad: I'm too lazy to look at the sources but interestingly wiki also categorizes North Macedonia & macedonians as south slavic.
The ethnic group of "Macedonians" (people who live in the state above Greece and left of Bulgaria) is regarded by geneticists as largely Bulgarian, with Serbian admixture. They are not actually Macedonians, who most definitely were Greek in genetics and culture. However, you can't really call them "North Macedonians", as an ethnic group. I guess the best term is Vardars? Vardarian? Not sure. Maybe even Paeonian if they insist on stealing an old Greek name.
And I don't disagree on Wikipedia's categorization... Since those people are largely Bulgarian.

Sorry for being late.
I actually would like to know (of the people who read it) your opinions. Can you follow it? Is it interesting so far?
First up, it was an interesting read and I had no problem following its contents. Just as @Angry_Panda has said however the beginning (first page) is a rather slow start and could use some work but you already know that, so nothing new. Everything else is fine and you seem to know what you are writing about (seems trivial, I know but there are other cases out there).


Here's the Macedonia Paper, available for a limited 24 hour window.


And yes. It's very pro-Greece.
Also well written and structured. Your passion for this topic is infectious and in turn interests me in something I didn't even know existed (=it was good).

One minor nitpick:
Sound familiar? If it doesn’t, let me clue you in. Skupi is the name for the city that would
later become Skopje. This migration of Bulgarians...
I am not really a fan of these sentences (that I underlined). They stand out like inkspots on a white sheet of paper and break away from the scientific writing from before and after. I would just delete it and go directly to the next sentence like this (by the way, small typo spotted):
...moved their capital to Skoupi and then later to Ohrid.
Skupi is the name for the city that would later become Skopje.

This aside, both the draft and paper were well made, besides the minor things already mentioned. :thumbsup:

what about the one with green tag? the m@dex if im not wrong.
You mean MD@Home? That was for back when you could help front the manga images on the site with your own server if I remember right (you had to have it on 24/7). It was a big project in V3 but I don't believe they still do it in V5, even the page to it is gone. One thing to note is I remember finding a page that showed the activity for MD@Home that still worked in V5, but I forgot where. All I remember is the graphics showed no activity for the project.

For the new people who have never seen a profile with the role before, here's an example:

Another thing to note from looking at my list is that most people who participated in the project were people who did not comment much, so it's much rarer to see them in comment sections.
