Informal country names vs official country names[]

There was a change from Macedonia to FYROM. I reverted it for now, since we do not use the official names of countries anywhere in the wiki and in my opinion we should keep it that way. - Yandere Sliver H09 symbol 18:24, 12 February 2018 (UTC)

Yeah, I agree. Similarly, "Taiwan" is used rather than "Chinese Taipei", which, while not the official name, is more informative to most people, so it was a conscious decision to have it be that way. The same can be said for Macedonia. --Sene (talk) 18:41, 12 February 2018 (UTC)
Also, Germany would be the Federal Republic of Germany, Israel would be the State of Israel, etc. That is definitely a large can of worms to open. - Yandere Sliver H09 symbol 18:47, 12 February 2018 (UTC)
