I love how they've boiled down an lot of shit to "BUT IT'S FOR KIDS, IT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE DARK AND EDGY!!!"
That page is meant for bad shows that seem to deliberately fuck up trying to sell itself. The argument they have for Gundam AGE sucks, but that's a show that actually belongs on this page because it's so terribly written that it fails to understand how to be a kids show - which was the explicit mission statement of this Gundam, since it wanted to compete with Yokai Watch or something - and instead tries to cargo cult at being a Gundam show without having a single original thought. The Velma entry on that page is actually pretty well written.
I love the logic there. If the population is declining, then import migrants.The Children of Men Laconic page seems a bit odd, it is missing a few things.

"It is one of those things that shows up way more than you may think in fiction.Is this really worthy of a trope? It comes out as someone's incredibly specific fetish.

Now that makes me curious: would it be able to include adjacent concepts of legless creatures using mobility devices in the trope parameters? That would certainly help fill the list and make it more justifiable, though you are right in that is is common enough to be worthy of some acknowledgment. Not that that seems to actually matter to the people that make and delete tropes half the time.It is one of those things that shows up way more than you may think in fiction.
Not even joking. Lori Lemaris was one of Superman's girlfriends and first appeared in a wheelchair only for the story to later reveal that she was a mermaid all along back in 1959.

That one is particuarly stupid because it just benefits no one. Another page removed because some autists with way too much time on his hands couldn't sleep at night.
