External links modified

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on Macedonians (ethnic group). Please take a moment to review my edit. If necessary, add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:

Added archive http://web.archive.org/web/20070930163721/http://www.canadianencyclopedia.ca/index.cfm?PgNm=TCE&Params=A1SEC823709 to http://www.canadianencyclopedia.ca/index.cfm?PgNm=TCE&Params=A1SEC823709

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{Sourcecheck}}).

Genetics for ethnic groups RfC

For editors interested, there's an RfC currently being held: Should sections on genetics be removed from pages on ethnic groups?. Cheers! --Iryna Harpy (talk) 01:41, 30 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Macedonian Slavs or Slav Macedonians ARE not proper exonyms

First of all - those 3 links are cherrypicked to support Greek POV. For PERSONS of separate ethnicity. Only Greeks have a distinction between "their" Macedonians and "Slav" Macedonians. But Greeks use Slavophone Greeks, not Slav Macedonians! Secondly - it is offensive that there's not a single other ethnicity called Serb Slavs, or Slav Poles, or Russian Slavs, or English Celts, ... BTW, this is resolved matter in WP:MOSMAC - "The same rules are to be used in an analogous fashion for sub-articles containing "Macedonian(s)" as an ethnic name (e.g. "Macedonians in country X")."

Finally, if an exonym is offensive for the people in question it should not be put in the WP article, e.g. would you put Negro or Colored or... at the top of the article about African_Americans? Kirev (talk) 21:59, 27 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
