Talk:Crocus (mythology)

Why "Krokus"?
The spelling "Krokus" doesn't seem to fit either the traditional convention for Latinizing Greek words (which would give Crocus), or the modern [IMHO clumsy and mechanical] conventions of romanization (which would give Krokos). What's "Krokus" supposed to be, does anybody actually write it that way, and should we consider moving to Crocus (mythology) or Krokos (mythology)? (I note that the homonymous Greek town of Κρόκος (Κοζάνης) has an article spelled Krokos.) Q·L·1968 ☿ 16:58, 4 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Having heard no objection, I've been bold and moved this page to Crocus (mythology). "Crocus" appears in Latin literature, so I figure that's the form we should default to in English, given that we use the Latin alphabet. However, if anybody wants to overrule me and move to Krokos (mythology) instead, I won't kick up a fuss. Q·L·1968 ☿ 18:19, 30 December 2014 (UTC)
