It seems we might have to reconsider the primary title of this article. Taking a look at the [http://www.halopedian.com/index.php?title=Sharpened_Shield&action=history edit history] of the page [[Sharpened Shield]] or its talk page, I noticed that the name "Sharpened Shield" was originally used here, on this site. This was quite a surprise, since I had assumed it was coined by the ''Encyclopedia'' writers. Instead, this is another one of those things that the ''Encyclopedia'' actually borrowed from here.

What makes it even more bizarre is how the page "Sharpened Shield" was eventually redirected to "[[Shield World]]", because people here realized it was never an official title. It appears to have been derived from a piece of Forerunner text which appears a couple of times in ''Ghosts of Onyx''; "And bless the Reclaimers that may take refuge behind the sharpened edge of the Shield..." but the name "Sharpened Shield" never appeared in any official material before someone here on Halopedia decided to use it.
