Star of Vergina

[edit]

"It originated from the vergina tombs on a golden casket from the tomb of Philip, father of Alexander The Great. But this archaeological find had already long been a part of Greek identity - causing a massive diplomatic row""

"Similar abuses occurred during the Balkans conflicts following Yugoslavia's break-up - not just in Macedonia, but throughout the region, argued Stasa Babic of Belgrade University"

Flag of Macedonia

Changing the name of this article

[edit]

I think that the name of this article should be named as The flag of Macedonia (country) because that's the name of the image and now the name of the article for the country is changed to Macedonia... --1111tomica (talk) 15:06, 30 May 2009 (UTC)1111tomica--1111tomica (talk) 15:06, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Greek symbol

[edit]

OK. To end all this edit warring I propose to change: "as Greece considered it a Greek symbol" to "as Greece considered it an exclusively Greek symbol". This would have the advantage of acknowledging the Macedonian idea that the symbol is by association also a Macedonian symbol, and clarifying the Greek position that it isn't. It also has the advantage of acknowledging that the symbol is indeed a Greek symbol. Gerard von Hebel (talk) 16:47, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Flags proposed in 1990

[edit]

I was recently reading a book and discovered that there was in 1990 a proposition by a political party to replace the socialist flag of Macedonia with a Macedonian tricolour of black red and white, It is a secondary source citing primary sources. I have not been able to find the primary sources online but I have read them and the arrangement of the first two colours was in a process of debate. I have recereated the flag and plan to post a section about it in the flags page. - ConstantineBigTeeth

Alternative flag proportion

[edit]

TrueAuraCoral has added an alternatively proportioned flag to the infobox. I reverted that, but rather than follow WP:BRD with a discussion here, TrueAuraCoral has again inserted the alternative. I have again removed it and started this discussion.

  • The Design section of the article states the proportions of the flag are 1:2. The article shows the flag concerned, but only as a non-adopted proposal. If it is, as TrueAuraCoral asserts, a formal alternative, then a reference needs to be provided to state that, and referenced amendments also made to the Design section.

Historical flags not featured in the article

[edit]

Whilst the modern Macedonian state was proclaimed during WW2, Vardar Macedonia and the rest of slavic Macedonia had more flags in the past, such as the flag of the Krushevo Republic which is seen as a crucial historical event in North Macedonia featuring two flags: a simplified red one and a detailed official one, as well as the flag of the IMRO which had been a flag used by revolutionaries operating in the region after the 1920s, as well as the unsuccessful independent state in 1944 and many other uprisings throughout the 19th and 20th century.

While the motives of the IMRO had been pro-bulgarian at times, the IMRO was diverse and had many different ideologies and factions, some being anti-bulgarian, I think it would only be fair to display these flags from when the modern macedonian identity was still in it's earliest form, as well as the connections these flags have with the macedonian people and the modern region of Vardar Macedonia.
