I've never heard of the Hunger Strike, but I've not been active or following the scene in the last few years. That said, Space Animal Slayer was THE term that was used for this for the years that I worked this site and followed Melee.  [[User:Clarinet Hawk|Clarinet Hawk]] <small>([[User talk:Clarinet Hawk|talk]] · [[Special:Contributions/Clarinet Hawk|contributions]])</small> 23:45, 24 November 2012 (EST)
have never heard anyone refer to this as the 'space animal slayer' or 'hunger strike', be it in tournament, on netplay, a fest, or by anyone -- either in person or on the internet alike. since joining the community in 2015 i've explicitly heard up-throw rest named as 'up-throw rest' -- including by PR puff players 'round the new england states.  [[User:Fats|Fats]] ([[User talk:Fats|talk]]) 09:19, 19 November 2018 (EST)
==Rename to "Up throw rest"==
Prior to this page I have never heard of the terms space animal slayer or hunger strike. Doing some research, it seems like "space animal slayer" was somewhat used on Smashboards from 2007-2008 with a few more references following those yers. "Hunger strike" seems to have been a commentator nickname for the move that apparently began seeing some use in local scenes (e.g. NorCal). Either way, neither of these terms have been used commonly in years. I have always heard the term "up throw rest" and nothing else. I suggest we move it to such to avoid confusion like this [https://twitter.com/Pipsqueak_TV/status/1437160346331062274 Twitter post].

'''Support''': "Space animal slayer" was always an antiquated name I never seen actually used outside this wiki, while being an awful mouthful to say/type at that, and while "Hunger Strike" is a much better name for actually saying/typing it, it was of niche usage then and I haven't really heard of it being used in years. Best to go with the basic name that's quick to say and is predominantly used.  <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 18:14, September 12, 2021 (EDT)
Bumping this after it got lost in the Riptide shuffle, but I'm going to move for a fast pass since this seems pretty cut-and-dry, and the conversation on Discord thoroughly supported it. So if there's no good objection in 24 hours, this move will be going through. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 00:48, September 13, 2021 (EDT)
