::Thanks for your clarifications, now I clearly understand the concern that you raise: 
 ::*The previous discussion involves a disambiguation page. This disambiguation page explicitly mentions the Republic of Macedonia, is mainly about the modern use of the term Macedonia and was the subject of a long dispute. Moreover, as a disambiguation page, there are no references, no context and it must be kept brief. Those are the reasons a cautious approach was chosen, and what makes the "baiting" argument relevant there.  
 ::*Here, we have a historical article which allows more extensive coverage, with content unrelated to the modern dispute. Therefore, careful sourced and informative additions (and I agree within the proper context) do not need such strict restrictions, and the baiting concern is weak.
