8[[folder:Tropes with Possible Issues]]
9!!Hair
10* EinsteinHair: Intended for characters with a certain hair style in the science field, but it had plenty of ZCE's commented out on the page.
11
12!!Body Parts/Physical traits
13* AmazonianBeauty: Attracts a lot of half-context examples that only talk about how muscular the female character but does not explain how the work portrays the character as attractive.
14* BeautifulAllAlong: Is supposed to be a {{Stock Plot|s}}, but is often used for characters who tropers find attractive after changing clothes.
15* BigOlEyebrows: Not much more than characters having thick eyebrows.
16* {{Cephalothorax}} and WaddlingHead: Mostly just a list of characters with this body plan.
17* FourFingeredHands: Has many [=ZCEs=] and straight, non-lampshaded examples have been deemed by several as not notable.
18* GagNose: Has a major ZCE issue.
19* HartmanHips: Intended for female characters with cartoonishly exaggerated pear-shaped figures but is often used for characters with wide hips and collects a lot of [=ZCEs=].
20* {{Hunk}}: Has lot of issues with [=ZCEs=] and tropers shoehorning any guy they find attractive even when they don't match the aesthetic.
21* InnocentBlueEyes: The "innocence" part of the trope is often poorly explained or simply stated without explanation.
22* JaggedMouth: Lists many ways the trope comes into effect, but most examples are to the tune "is this" or "has this" with no explanation.
23* NoodlePeople: Nearly all ZCE. Also described as an art style.
24* ProphetEyes: Covers all possible narrative uses for a character having cataracts, including characters who just happen to have them with no elaboration.
25* TallDarkAndHandsome: Has many [=ZCEs=].
26* TechnicolorEyes: This seems to be covered by multiple eye color tropes.
27* TVHeadRobot: Has many [=ZCEs=], and is essentially just "Robot with a TV/Computer for a head", which may not be notable.
28* UnnecessaryMakeover: Appears to be a mixture of a YMMV and an InUniverse trope. The former is sometimes used for complaining and for troping RealLife people on YMMV pages.
29
30!!Clothing/Accessories
31* BarefootCartoonAnimal: Was brought to the ZCE cleanup thread, where it's stated to attract examples that are simply "animal character is clothed save for footwear" with no narrative relevance.
32* CasualSportsJersey: Questionable tropeworthiness. Brought to TLP Crash Rescue with no resolution.
33* FrenchMaidOutfit: Massive overlap with FrenchMaid.
34* GiantPoofySleeves: There's not much of a trope relating to big princess-style sleeves.
35* NavelWindow: Not much more than an outfit with a navel window.
36* {{Sarashi}}: Is plagued with [=ZCEs=] but the unifying factor seems to be brawler type characters being associated with the trope.
37
38
39!!Profession + Attractiveness
40A lot of the tropes in this category have had issues raised about their tropability beyond "X works in Y position and is hot". Since all but one of them aren't restricted to in-universe examples, there might also be issues with tropers adding anyone they find attractive.

60[[folder:Ongoing Projects]]
61* {{Bishonen}}: Made into an MediaNotes/AnimeFanspeak Administrivia/DefinitionOnlyPage due to redundancy issues with PrettyBoy.
62* PrettyBoy: Made Administrivia/InUniverseExamplesOnly, restricting it to examples that are commented on in the work, due to ZCE issues with other examples.

82* DoesNotLikeShoes: Disambig
83* ElementalHair
84* FingerlessGloves
85* FlowerInHerHair: Disambig
86* GrayEyes: Made a disambig. New redirects IcyGrayEyes (and IcyGreyEyes) and InnocentGrayEyes (and InnocentGreyEyes) made to cover usage.
87* GreenEyes: Made a disambig.
88* HairDecorations: Disambig. SignatureHeadgear created to catch valid uses.

90* HotMom and HotDad: Turned into disambiguation pages because of creepy gushing.
91* HotScientist
92* LennonSpecs
93* MegaTwintails
94* MulticoloredHair
95* NiceHat
96* PeekABangs
97* OperaGloves

106!!Merged/redirect
107* BadassBeard and BadassMustache: Merged into ManlyFacialHair.
108* BikerBabe: Into BadassBiker.
109* EvilAlbino and HeroicAlbino: Merged into AlbinosAreFreaks.
110* HotChickWithASword: Into ActionGirl, from which the former was determined to not be distinct enough.
111* HotScoop was redirected to HollywoodBeautyStandards.
112* RedheadedBully: Merged into EvilRedhead due to being determined to be Administrivia/TheSamebutMoreSpecific to it.
113* RedHeadedHero: Into RedIsHeroic.
114* TomboyishSidetails: Into BoyishShortHair.
115* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Redirected into HairColors.
116
117!!Cut
118* BabyGotBack: Attracted all sorts of creepy examples despite the trope only including examples that acknowledged it in-universe.
119* CleopatraNose: ZCE magnet and determined to not be a trope.
120* DetachedSleeves: Cut for not being a trope.
121* HotChickInABadassSuit: Cut for just being a list for women in suits.
122* KindRedEyes: Used solely to list {{aver|tedTrope}}sions of RedEyesTakeWarning. Since an aversion is a lack of a trope, such examples are redundant with TechnicolorEyes.
123* PowerBlonde: Redundant with ActionGirl and its subtropes, since blonde hair is [[Administrivia/PeopleSitOnChairs not a trope]] on its own.
124* ShowTheForehead: Cut for not being a trope.
125* ShinyMidnightBlack: Was deemed not tropeworthy.
126* ShortHairWithTail: Meaningless ZCE magnet.
127
128!!Rename/redefine and clean
129* BoobBasedGag: Renamed from GagBoobs. The new name makes it clear that the trope is about breast related comedy.
130* BuxomBeautyStandard: Renamed from "Buxom Is Better" to clarify the fact that it's an Administrivia/InUniverseExamplesOnly trope for in-universe beauty standards.
131* DevilishHairHorns: Renamed from "Horned Hairdo". The new name makes the evil/devil associations more explicit.
132* FunnyAfro: Description was revised to focus on afros played for comedy, and the wicks were cleaned accordingly.
133* GlassesAreSexy: Renamed from SexySpectacles because it was being misused as "every girl with glasses that some troper finds hot".
134* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Renamed from "Hair of Gold". It was renamed so that the good/heroic implications of the trope stand out, since blonde hair is [[Administrivia/PeopleSitOnChairs not a trope]] on its own.
135* NavelDeepNeckline: Renamed from "Absolute Cleavage" due to heavy misuse for any cleavage at all instead of a very deep neckline.
136* OdangoHair: Made into a FanSpeak term.
137* RoseHairedSweetie: Renamed from "Rose Haired Girl''. The current name makes the cheery/sweet aspects of the trope more clear.
138* {{Meganekko}}: Made into a FanSpeak term. BespectacledCutie was launched to cover the intended meaning of glasses making a character look cute.
139* MysticalWhiteHair: Renamed from "White-haired Pretty Girl". The mystical/magical element were made more explicit and the trope is now gender neutral.
140* SupernaturalGoldEyes: Renamed from "Eyes of Gold" because it was being misused for any character with gold eyes, regardless of whether they were supernatural, with purely aesthetic gold eyes already being covered by TechnicolorEyes.
141* VillainInAWhiteSuit: Renamed from "Man in White" and redefined to focus on the WickedCultured villainous leader aspect. Done through TRS.
142* WhiteHairBlackHeart: Renamed from "White Haired Pretty Boy". Redefined to be limited to evil/morally ambiguous characters and was also made gender neutral.
143* ZettaiRyouiki: Made into a FanSpeak term.
