So, I just wanted to discuss with you specifically about the recent edit on Jakotsu's page, which changed the date the Bo7 was beheaded from 10 years ago to 15 years prior to the start of the story. On all of our articles, we've pretty much always said that it happened ten years ago.

In Episode 103, a villager says that it was a little over ten years ago, and in the Manga the villager says it happened a few decades ago. Considering that the lord of the feudal castle is still alive & ruling when Bankotsu comes to take back Banryu, and that the general guy who beheaded the squad is still alive in the anime) it can be assumed it wasn't that long ago considering the amount of people who can recall the events of the Shichinintai's havoc. Even though no exact date is given and it's never stated to be precisely ten years ago, I think that saying "it was ten years ago" is more logical than having a very ambiguous date on each Shichinintai related article.

I guess my question is:

Is it alright to round-out the date a bit as we have been, or should we keep it ambiguous and vague like the series does?
