I was a bit reluctant to include this in the last batch of holding proposals I made. This is because quite often the character isn't actually shown physically holding the shield. The tag seems to be used for images of someone equipping a shield, which could be being worn, for instance around the wrist and/or upper arm, rather than actually being held. How do we know that the likes of post #2530328 is actually being held, for instance? And post #2514557 seems to very much indicate that the shield is not being held. And if you remove these ones to leave only the likes of post #2514912 then the tag becomes rare to the point of insignificance.
+1 to the holding shield -> shield one though.

Then it isn't holding a shield.
Holding is still an action, but being attached to own owns forearm isn't an active movement, and therefore not holding.

I agree, but this means >80% of the uses of this tag should be removed, leaving it miles away from the 50 uses mark.
The bulk update request #966 has been rejected.
