'Security' vs 'Defense' Design

Having a 'defense design' and 'defense guide' article was ridiculous name-wise. This one was about how to make your layout better defense-wise, so 'security' seemed an appropriate kind-of-synonym. Already managed the redirects so it links up to the 40d Defense Guide (and it to this page) fine. --Retro 00:20, 12 April 2010 (UTC)

This makes great sense. I was messing with these articles earlier today and wasn't quite sure what to do with the dual defense articles. Nice work.--JohnnyMadhouse 00:35, 12 April 2010 (UTC)
