While the article reads "Greek pronunciation: [əˈnæŋkiː];" - that is nowhere near Greek pronunciation, as it is no other than English pronunciation.
This article has no sources at all. ICE77 ( talk) 19:51, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
Stanislaw Lem falls under "Ananke in literature" but Philip K. Dick falls under "Ananke in popular culture"? That's weirdly arbitrary. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shunn ( talk • contribs) 15:55, 6 June 2015 (UTC)
100.36.49.77 added "In C. A. Higgins's debut 2015 science fiction novel, Lightless, the cutting edge military space ship is named Ananke. The Ananke also features in the second book of the trilogy, 2016's Supernova.", which was removed. Sounds perfectly acceptable to me. Why was it removed, might I ask?

In the article history, I see that an was made to remove "also spelled Anangke, Anance, or Anagke". The comment for the edit says "n before γ, κ, ξ, χ as per WP:GREEK". The user making the edit was /info/en/?search=User:Omnipaedista .
Whether or not the alternative spellings are correct Greek, it is a fact that many scholarly articles (I currently count ~257 in Google Scholar ["anagke" plato]) do use the spelling "anagke". And at least one published book uses the "anagke" spelling: Inventing the Universe: Plato's Timaeus, the Big Bang, and the Problem of Scientific Knowledge .
In fact, I was reading such an article and I wanted to confirm that "anagke" and "ananke" were indeed the same concept. Wikipedia used to provide this useful information, but now it doesn't. Why?
If there is no good reason for the removal, could someone please reinsert the deleted text? I'm happy to do it if others agree to the change.
PS I didn't know if it is proper etiquette to contact the person who made the edit directly, so I thought I would ask here first.
