Where is the accent mark over the 'e' in "Stanek" coming from? None of the in-game emails to her or her dad have it, nor does the loading screen biography for Allison Stanek have it. The concept art linked on this page spells it "Stanek", as do the login screen for Allison's computer and the mission objectives for M18: Tracking Down the Real Terrorists and M11: Confronting the Bomb-Maker (the objectives on the wiki pages spell it with the accent mark, but it's not present in-game). The story thus far on the initial loading screen spells it "Stanek" for chapters 8 to 11 for both Allison and Nomad, as do the voice actor credits at the end of the game. Even the in-game sign on the watchmaking shop spells it "Stanek" (stylizing the "K" as clock hands, but not including any accent marks), and the map shows it the same way.

The email system is capable of supporting accent marks, as emails from Kateřina Vondráčková, Filip Fojtášek, and Hanka Lukášová to Marta Babik all show proper accent marks, as does a pocket secretary from Amélia Poussier to Sandrine Assad. Likewise, the mission title for SM12: K is for Každý and objectives for SM05: Samizdat show accent marks (interestingly, the page for Samizdat misspells Dávný by omitting the accent marks). The credits have tons of accent marks. The only place there's no accent mark for something else is the story thus far chapters, but I doubt it's incapable of displaying them. Just below the in-game sign on the door are the words "denně otevřeno" (open daily) with proper accent marks, and the map includes accent marks for the Hlavní apartments.

The only place I'm seeing a variant with accent marks is "novinový stánek" (news stand) above the various news stands, which obviously has nothing to do with the Stanek family name.

In short, the game is fully capable of spelling "Staněk", but that name shows up nowhere. If they wanted to spell it that way, they would have. The correct name is clearly "Stanek" and a bunch of wiki pages should be corrected.
