I don't understand what this category is intended for. (Possibly things held upside down, judging by the categories it's in, but contradicted by the images that's in it.) I asked its creator on July 28 (Category talk:Unexpected twist), but no response so far. Suggest delete. Sinigh (talk) 23:39, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
- Google translates the Japanese description as "reverse hand", possibly referring to the reverse grip being used on an object in each photo - but this seems like a weirdly specific detail to categorize on. Omphalographer (talk) 08:01, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- I want to rename this category.
- Why did I named in 2017, like this category-name...It's probably mistranslation. Sorry.
- What I'd like to say is "Reverse grip",
- from the concept of Horizontal bar (png) --Benzoyl (talk) 23:43, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- Ah, I see! "Reverse grip" is used similarly in weight training as well. But doesn't that refer to objects that remain oriented the same way? It doesn't seem like the objects in this category and the images below are "gripped" in that sense, since both the "grip" and the orientation of the object itself change with the orientation of the hand, whereas horizontal bars and weight-lifting equipment need to be "regripped" for the grip to change.

-
(1) Nomal grip -
(2) Reverse grip -
(3) about 90°
- I think "(2) Reverse grip" is rare case. = Contrastingly Mostly (3). Therefore this category have a necessity.

- But a steering wheel is attached to the car. You don't "grip" a microphone in that sense; instead, the microphone itself is oriented differently depending on how you happen to move your hand. That's not what happens with horizontal bars and steering wheels. Sinigh (talk) 21:18, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
