Brawl calls it Perfect Shield. SSB4 calls it Perfect Shield. Ultimate calls it Perfect Shield. The name "power shield" is just a misnomer based on a melee bonus. Why hasn't this been changed by now?  Just because some melee fanboys refuse to move on and learn from their mistakes? - [[Special:Contributions/68.190.118.39|68.190.118.39]] 15:18, 3 January 2019 (EST)

:While I don't agree with your line about "melee fanboys" as it's not necessary for a professional website and goes against the talk page's guidelines, I agree with the users above that the most recent official name "perfect shield" should be used as the article title as it has the most significant use both offically and among players.[[User: supatoad64|<span style="color:blue;"> '''SupaToad64''' </span>]] [[ Image: MK64ToadCSP.jpg ]] 06:21, June 10, 2019 (EDT)

I felt like the information on how equipment and spirits can change the effect of perfect shields should be listed on the page. While it's not necessary for competitive play I felt it should be mentioned for the sake of completionism. Was this change alright?[[User: supatoad64|<span style="color:blue;"> '''SupaToad64''' </span>]] [[ Image: Supatoad64Sig.jpg ]] 03:27, June 8, 2019 (EDT)

== Powershield vs Perfect Shield ==
 
This debate has been going on for awhile so let's decide which name should be used for the article title:
 
'''''Powershield''''' or '''''Perfect Shield'''''.

:Also make sure to specify which name you suggest in '''bold''' to make it easier to count. Currently:
:'''Powershield''': 0
:'''Perfect Shield''': 4

:'''Perfect Shield''': The most recent name. Powershielding can redirect here, but it's not the name used anymore so it should be replaced. [[User:Crazy456Rhino|Crazy456Rhino]] ([[User talk:Crazy456Rhino|talk]]) 09:14, October 17, 2019 (EDT)
 
:'''Perfect Shield''': Honestly, I never hear the term powershield when talking about this. I only hear Perfect shield and parry. I think powershield should only be used in ''Melee'' discussion, since that is where it's most used. [[User:X-Biaur19|X-Biaur19]] ([[User talk:X-Biaur19|talk]]) 21:40, November 2, 2019 (EDT)
 
:'''Perfect shield''': Basically what Omega Tyrant said 6 years ago because it's exactly what I think: Powershield is the most common name used within the Melee community, but from Brawl and onward Perfect Shield is the dominant term used both officially and among players. The only times we use unofficial names is if it has more significant usage by players over the official name (L cancelling instead of smooth landing, SDI instead of hitstun shuffling, etc.), but the rule doesn't apply to the term Perfect Shield due to its significant usage, and mostly everyone has heard the term Perfect Shield so they won't go "what?" when hearing it. <span style="font-family: Algerian">'''[[User:supatoad64|<span style="color:green;">Supα</span>]][[User talk:supatoad64|<span style="color:red;">Toαd</span><span style="color:blue;">64</span>]]'''</span> [[Image:001Toad.jpg|20px]] 07:48, November 4, 2019 (EST)

== "Officially" power shield? ==
 
I thought that was just the name of the Bonus. Like how taunting isn't called "Fighter Stance". [[Special:Contributions/68.190.118.39|68.190.118.39]] 22:29, November 9, 2020 (EST)
