Macedonia naming conventions[edit]

Please read Wikipedia:Manual of Style (Macedonia-related articles). The correct name to use in most instances on Wikipedia is Republic of Macedonia, but there are exceptions. Specifically, the guideline says:

In articles about international political organisations or cultural/athletic events where the Republic participates officially under the appellation former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia or variants thereof (e.g. the United Nations, accession to the European Union, the Olympic Games etc.), the official naming conventions of those organisations should be followed.

That clause means that the football team must be named according to the FIFA designation, which is "FYR Macedonia" per this link. There is also consensus within Wikipedia:WikiProject Football to use this designation, and use of the standard template for the national team will also produce this name (i.e. {{fb|MKD}} → North Macedonia).

Please do not undo other people's edits repeatedly, or you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. The three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the 3RR. Thank you.

Three revert rule[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Bitola. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Aramgar (talk) 16:09, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours in accordance with Wikipedia's blocking policy for violating the three-revert rule. Please be more careful to discuss controversial changes or seek dispute resolution rather than engaging in an edit war. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest the block by adding the text {{unblock|your reason here}} below. GDonato (talk) 21:47, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re-blocked for a week for multiple sockpuppeting and continued edit-warring. Fut.Perf. ☼ 07:56, 4 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sockpuppetry case[edit]

You have been accused of sockpuppetry. Please refer to Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Ancientworld for evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with notes for the suspect before editing the evidence page. Laveol ^T 23:30, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Because of your use of the sockpuppet User:Libraryboys to evade a block, I'm extending your block for an extra week. --Akhilleus (talk) 13:48, 10 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
