curprev14:4514:45, 27 January 2019 Armindentalkcontribs 5,639 bytes−44 It's NOT a proper English-language term, but a literal translation of the German term, and apparently only used in English texts in German contexts. It might catch on, but it's not there yet. One might as well use the original German "Schildmauer", since shield wall already means smth. else in English. The hyphen might be of some help.undo
