This article uses "WeiB Kreuz" instead of Weiß Kreuz (or, alternatively, Weiss Kreuz).

"Weiß" or "weiss" translates to "white." "Weib" translates to broad, hag, biddy, [insert choice of derogatory way to refer to someone else's wife], etc. ß and B are not the same letter, and cannot be interchanged.

Furthermore, the series was never released in the US under that title, so the article should call it (or at least acknowledge in parenthesis) the title "Knight Hunters."
