If people on-wiki are being snitty, I'd recommend going straight to OTRS, Via them the charity can point out relevant links to counter any undue weight as-opposed to trying to remove content.
It does carry a lot more weight if OTRS volunteers bring up legitimate new sources on the talk and ask these incorporated to eliminate any bias.

If you don't find any luck here, OTRS are good at this kind of thing.
