| Message | We notice that when we try to change the name of the Wilayahs to "Wilayah Soviet", the right-wing parties say "you're destroying tradition!", even though the proposal still had "Wilayah" in it, but when you propose to change it to "Wilayah Protectorate", it's not destroying tradition. |

| Date | 00:59:36, May 27, 2008 CET | From | United Malivia | To | Debating the Glorious Name Change and other Matters |
| Message | OOC: Nobody has said anything because nobody has seen the bill yet.... IC: United Malivia does not believe that the title of Maharaja should be extended and we also do not believe that the Wilayah should be known as protectorates. For the time being things should remain the way the are. |

| Message | We feel a longer title is more suitable, for the role of Maharaja must be paramount. |
| Date | 02:43:57, May 27, 2008 CET | From | United Malivia | To | Debating the Glorious Name Change and other Matters |
| Message | We still believe that such titles can be more informal, just for the sake of simplicity. |
| Date | 02:49:42, May 27, 2008 CET | From | Supporters of Science in Design (IP) | To | Debating the Glorious Name Change and other Matters |
| Message | We await the input of the National Malivians. They shall be the tie breaking vote in this matter. We have chosen to remove the Wilayah Protectorate portion, though, per United Malivia's requests. |
| Date | 03:13:48, May 27, 2008 CET | From | Soviet Party (Trotskyist) | To | Debating the Glorious Name Change and other Matters |
| Message | We support renaming Malivia to the Gerajan Federation of Malivia. |
| Date | 04:42:01, May 27, 2008 CET | From | National Anti-Communist Front | To | Debating the Glorious Name Change and other Matters |
| Message | The NMP will support the named change, though we also suggest "Armed Gerajan Protectorates of Malivia". |
