The Anna Sprengel page was basically created before we really have seen much of anything of the character. Heck, I bet most people (like me) didn't even know it existed for a long time considering that it wasn't put on the verse page. In any case it is not further surprising that it needs a lot of revisions now that we actually experienced the character fight.
As a basis for those revisions, I have created a respect thread with all feats to this point.
As for the current rating of "Nigh-Omnipresent"... well, does the reasoning given even sound like nigh-omnipresence? For me, it doesn't. It doesn't help that the same description is given for Aleister Crowley who we factually know wasn't Nigh-Omnipresent either. As I explain in the corresponding section of the respect blog the entire explanation is rather unreliable, to begin with.
Up to this point she faced Touma, Misaka and Misaki in battle and blitzed none of them. Given, she was hardly even trying. Still, her speed rating should for now be "Human level, possibly higher" or something along that line.
Her best feats are tanking basically everything Misaka can dish out. Assuming we don't scale from lightning due to it being lightning, I would say we scale her to Multi-City Block level for that. Maybe with a "possibly Planet level" due to the Planet level physical attacks.
I think we can relatively safely ignore the statements that "distance doesn't matter" for now.
As a basis for those revisions, I have created a respect thread with all feats to this point.
Speed
Let's start with this. Anna has sadly not demonstrated any really impressive speed feats to this point. As we know from early Aleister even god-tier magicians of the verse can be rather lacking in physical speed. Or at least until they decide to use some magic to change that.As for the current rating of "Nigh-Omnipresent"... well, does the reasoning given even sound like nigh-omnipresence? For me, it doesn't.

Durability
The current page gives no reasoning for the durability and in my blog you will find no feats on this scale either. The best you could argue is that you could scale it from her striking strength, buuuuut... as you can see in the Breaker Powers section of the blog she can magically empower her hits with all kinds of effects and strength. So I'm somewhat sceptical that her striking strength scales to her durability given the weird supernatural empowerment.Her best feats are tanking basically everything Misaka can dish out. Assuming we don't scale from lightning due to it being lightning, I would say we scale her to Multi-City Block level for that. Maybe with a "possibly Planet level" due to the Planet level physical attacks.
Range
I didn't even pay much attention to that when gathering feats... Still, her structure breaker destroyed some large buildings "in the corner of the scenery", so that should be at least several hundred meters.I think we can relatively safely ignore the statements that "distance doesn't matter" for now.
Stamina
The justification of her stamina makes no sense. Those things simply wouldn't even slightly harm her given her durability. This should for the time being get downgraded to average. For the same reason her pain tolerance should go.Standard Equipment
She used the black pills once, but I think they are more optional equipment. I'm not sure if she still has any. They also need a bit more explanation. The Pneuma-less Shell should be added on the other hand, as should the normal knife she carries.Shapeshifting
Should, in my opinion, be replaced with limited Age Manipulation, given that she only changes her own age and nothing else.Precognition
I don't think she should have that. It could just be a case of her being a genius planner, which seems more likely. I talked with LazyHunter about it and he pointed out how Anna was "surprised by unexpected things such as Misaki tripping mid-fight and that she seemed actually curious as to what Touma would do in GT2 and she was genuinely disappointed by Touma when they met again until he revealed he had turn St. Germain into an ally."Immunity to Mind Manipulation & Possession
Why "Immunity" is a no go should be clear. This should be resistance, however not for the reason of eating St. Germain but for resisting Misaki. Eating a St. Germain pill should instead grant her resistance to possession as that is what St. Germain does.Immortality
I think there is nothing that ever really suggested she is absolutely immortal. So this should be Longevity instead.Additions
