ok but if the clause stays someone might start removing the upside-down tag from posts with "head down feet up" before we come up with a tag for those posts
If you're worried about that, you can create a favgroup for those posts in the meantime.

ok, but i'm not sure if this is a good idea. basically the timeline of things is that
1. there was no clause and certain posts were okay to tag
2. the clause was added without consensus
3. those posts are no longer okay to tag and users may remove them
4. we are discussing whether the clause should stay or not, taking the stance that the current state WITH the clause is the status quo
imo what should be done is reverting it first and then if people want an "images upside down" tag they can just make a favgroup of those posts and propose that as a tag.

You can't actually populate a favgroup through a BUR.
The bulk update request #57064 (forum #426336) has been rejected by @nonamethanks.

i noticed that @LuxuryRay added the following incorrect examples to upside-down
I disagree that these are not upside down. There's no way to search for them if you remove them from the tag.
What if we split the tag into two, one for gravity and one for perspective? Something like hanging_upside-down and upside-down_(perspective)

you can search for this already with hanging upside-down
maybe upside-down_view would work if the whole thing was upside down but if it isn't upside-down world then isn't that just... someone rotated the image 180 degrees? would that be a meta tag? like this post #10546553 it's just rotated
upside-down environment and upside-down view sound okay to me. i'm probably getting ahead of myself here, but my suggestion would be from upside-down, to match our other from_* tags.
There seems to be four scenarios for "upside-down" now, half of which has relevant tags most people agree with.
Scenarios with tags:
1. The person is upside-down in terms of gravity: so the usual upside-down tag.
2. The world is shown to be intentionally upside-down such as skyscrapers growing from the sky: upside-down world
Scenarios without specific tags:
3. The entire image is upside-down: preferably there's a meta tag for this
4. The character's head is visually below the body but the character is lying flat on the ground or something
I propose upside-down image for scenario 3 and bump wingdings' suggestion of from upside-down for scenario 4.

Hanging does not include people floating in midair.

I think there has to be a better name for this. The current from_* tags refer to a position (side, behind, above, etc.). Upside-down is an orientation, not a position. It also doesn't sound natural in English. Are there any photography terms we can use that can describe this angle instead?

I can't find a specific photography term for the pose but searching "Lying Upside Down" in google seems to give consistent image results similar to what we want.

That's what I found too, but I was concerned lying upside-down might be confused for a two-tag search replacement of lying and upside-down (a lying upside-down search mostly results in these kind of posts). Not helping is the fact that there are also things like post #9674212, though since only her upper back is touching the floor, maybe there's a more accurate term than "lying" for this.
Regardless, I do think lying upside-down is a better option than from upside-down.

i always took the from_* tags to mean the viewer's position relative to the subject, and i believe it makes sense if you think of it that way. in post #8338883, the subject is being viewed from the side, and in post #8402073, the subject is indeed being viewed from upside-down.
I agree with wingdings' logic, and I'm averse to lying upside-down because of possible mistags. lying upside-down could also be misinterpreted as on stomach.

I did think of it that way. Upside-down is not a position, relative or otherwise. We can use from upside-down if we don't have anything better, but it still sounds awkward.
This is a specific example of foreshortening I think.
