Capitalization
Is it supposed to be "Nanatsu no ko" or "Nanatsu no Ko" (with a capital "K")? I've seen many references of the title with a big K (e.g. in Wikipedia). Depending on the correct spelling, we either need to fix the page name (which is not capitalized) or the content (where it's capitalized). --Maurice 02:27, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

Phone number vs mail address
In researching an IP's edit, I looked up the official term used. In File 475 page 3 middle left panel and page 4 top panel, Conan used the term: "ボス の メールアドレス" (Literally boss's mail address). I'm not sure whether this should be translated as phone number or email address because it looks like a phone number rather than an email and various Conan promotionals in Japan advertised calling a phone number like you were calling the boss.
