I do agree something other than "Macedonian Slavs" would be good. "Macedonian (nationality)" has been proposed on one of the talk pages and seems relatively neutral (since the ancient Macedonians weren't part of a "nationality" by a modern definition, and the modern Greek Macedonians are a component of the Greek nationity, not a separate nationality).
"Nation" is often an ambiguous term. The tendency in English is to equate it with a particular state or country, but it can sometimes represent other groups that see themselves as distinct cultural entities without political independence.
