Made it up there a second time and it did not appear; I started at rally point alpha. --[[User talk:IWHBYD%&amp;|IWHBYD%&amp;]] 18:52, 1 January 2009 (UTC)[[File:1230735608-258px-Red_Hayabusa.jpg|thumb|IWHTA]]

This article's name is completely wrong. First of all, the name shouldn't include ''both'' the acronym ''and'' what it stands for. Second, the "Halo 3:" prefix at the beginning is entirely contradictory to the naming conventions on this wiki. Names that fit this wiki's naming conventions include "IWHBYD Skull (Halo 3)" or "I Would Have Been Your Daddy Skull (Halo 3)". As the skull's in-game name is "IWHBYD", the former would be more appropriate. <span style="background:#AADDAA;display:inline-block;height:16px;padding-right:4px;line-height:1em;position:relative;top:-3px;-moz-border-radius:0 50% 50%"><b>[[File:DavidJCobb_Emblem.png|16px]] [[User:DavidJCobb|<span style="color:#000;position:relative;top:.15em">DavidJCobb&nbsp;</span>]]</b></span> 21:18, 23 June 2009 (UTC)
