We may get to the point when we will no longer expect transliterations of text cited in Greek font, but we aren't there yet.
For now, the rule still stands:

CITATION OF GREEK TEXT IN MESSAGES SENT TO B-GREEK


Using Unicode (UTF-8) for Greek citations in messages sent to B-Greek:

Greek citations in messages posted to B-Greek may be formulated in
plain-text Unicode (UTF-8), but for the sake of list-members who have
problems reading or typing Unicode, such citations should at the same
time be formulated in BG-transliteration, in accordance with the
following pattern:

       John 1:1 ἐν ἀρχῇ ἦν ὁ λόγος, καὶ ὁ
λόγος ἦν πρὸς τὸν θεόν,  καὶ θεὸς
ἦν ὁ λόγος.
       John 1:1: EN ARCHi HN hO LOGOS, KAI hO LOGOS HN PROS TON
QEON, KAI QEOS HN hO LOGOS.

For the BG transliteration scheme, see
