I'm sorry, but I think this is a lovely case of trying to rationalize away a serious problem.
True - but not the one you were thinking of. There exists on Wikipedia a small group of people who will reflexively revert any removal of any link to external harassment, shouting "ZOMG! BADSITES!" and calling the world to come and look.
For the victims of offsite harassment, this is a really bad atmosphere. They have only two choices at present: leave harassment in place, or have it shouted from the rooftops.
I'd love to find a way to avoid both. Unfortunately this small group of people will not allow it.
