Infobox locator map

I notice that there are several locator maps used for European countries. Macedonia's is Mercator, and extends far north and west, leaving the country looking tiny (if it weren't already quite small). Compare at the map used for Italy, which seems to be far more suitable for showing countries on the European mainland, especially towards the south. Can the other base map be adapted for use here?

I was the originator of the PNG locator maps as used in Italy and various other European countries, which are consistent with maps used for most other countries. Surprisingly, there was a prior edit war regarding these maps, with some arguing that the horrid orange Mercator maps should remain without there really being a prior consensus to keep them. Anyhow, it is my intent to produce SVG maps for all European countries when able, but I have been delayed in doing so. This is still on my to-do list, so stay tuned!

Move to F.Y.R.O.M

Can someone please move this whole page and all of its detial into Former Yugoslavian Republic of Macedonia because that is exactly what it is. That is how the UN recognizes it and besides, Macedonia as a place is much bigger in Greece to where it culturally belongs. We can't go ignoring UN policy and more countries recognize FYROM including all of the improtant lands: Western and Central Europe etc. One more thing, Alexander the Great was not FYROM-Macedonian because he lived years before the Slavs came along.

Misplaced Pages does not answer to the UN or any other organization or country. The country calls itself Republic of Macedonia so that is the more common English name (and probably the most neutral). The horse is dead, stop flogging it. Samuell Lift me up or put me down 22:38, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

Samuell, if you do not want to be the one dead, better proceed as requested. Either that or we'll keep beating! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.38.72.32 (talk) 14:18, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Rename to FYROM or Republic of Skopje

Please, rename this site to FYROM or Republic of Skopje before we erradicate these bastards once and for all. Is that what they want?

Please move this article to its original name: Vardarska

FYROM does not exist. Move it to Vardarska.
