I think ドロボー should go into the 泥棒 entry. The word 
itself isn't [sl], just the reading.

Unidic (has it as variant of 泥棒). G n-grams: 
ドロボー	82360
どろぼー	5408
  Comments:
Could be merged into 泥棒 entry, but it's slangy. It's now a Wii game, but I don't think it was in 2007 when the G n-gram data was collected.
