Macedonian name in the lead edit

I find it very arbitrary to include the Macedonian name to the lead. Albanians make up 20% in the Krushevo muncip., is that an excuse to include the Alb. name into the lead of the city's article? AlexBachmann (talk) 23:32, 3 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

See Kruševo Municipality, thanks. --Local hero talk 23:46, 3 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
I am talking about the city. Take those seconds and look up the article about the actual city to avoid unnecessary comments. AlexBachmann (talk) 23:49, 3 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
Taking these points under observation, would you agree to create a separate section and remove the Macedonian name from the lead? AlexBachmann (talk) 23:53, 3 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
The town of Kruševo is inhabited by an ethnic Macedonian majority and a Vlach minority. I'm not sure how it relates to this discussion. This island, best-known for its Orthodox cave church, is located in a municipality exclusively populated by Orthodox Christian Macedonians. The island has no residents, but those who live a short boat ride away are Macedonian-speakers.
A better comparison would be something like Bogovinje Lake. This is a municipality with a dominant Albanian majority, yet no one lives at the shores of this lake; we list Albanian in the lead there because it's relevant nonetheless. We don't create a tiny section for the Albanian name on that article and it isn't needed here. --Local hero talk 00:07, 4 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
I'll agree to keep it just because it is uninhabited. AlexBachmann (talk) 13:51, 4 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
