This article uses the word "suggested' but there are people who are actively trying to ban the word "Gypsy" and replace it with "Roma." So I'm asking "When did the Gypsies vote on it? When did they vote you to represent them?" Who for example asked the Gypsy Kings (who are Sinti) if they wanted to change their name to the Roma Kings? I'm not asking anybody to change anything, so I don't have to consult anybody about changes. I just know that It is a fact that the word "Roma" refers to only one tribe of Gypsies, and that the other tribes of Gypsies were not consulted about this change. How could they be?
