What is the correct pronunciation and correct spelling of the name? I have an academic book, summariazing a symposium about Digenes called "Digenes Akrites" (Robert Beaton and David Ricks, eds. Variorum 1993). Shouldn't there at least be some redirection page?

There's no standard term. Latinization before translation yielding Digenis Acritas or Digenis Acrites seem to be more popular, but Digenes Akritas or Digenis Akrites or others are also widely used. I guess a redirection page would be usefull. Though the weakeness of this page is that its unknown. This article needs to be linked with more Wikipedia pages. Colossus 13:24, 27 August 2005 (UTC)
