I don't know how long this page has existed, but there are some serious issues with it. Nonbinary is a real gender identity/umbrella for various identities. Referring to any character who has gender ambiguity, by choice or by supernatural means, regardless of their gender identity, is disrespectful to real nonbinary people. I'm not familiar with every character used in this pantheon, but I know for certain there is nothing nonbinary about Ranma Saotome. He is a cis boy whose body becomes female due to supernatural circumstances. Poison shouldn't be in a category labeled nonbinary, as (from what I know of the character) she is a transgender woman, but she is also oversexualized and not considered particularly positive representation, and I personally am against her being the "patron" of trans characters. If this is a pantheon for supernatural biological sex tropes and characters they apply to, then it needs a different name. And if its meant for canonically nonbinary characters, then it needs a complete overhaul.
