The trouble with efforts like this is that there will inevitably always be some out of date information, but taking down everything would be a major loss of the bulk of useful information. I manage a website with information on East African airfields. It carries a large banner saying:

material contained here ........
... IS NOT TO BE USED FOR NAVIGATION.
It is provided for entertainment only. It is known to contain errors

And every page carries the disclaimer:
Remember, this information is KNOWN to contain many errors! It can act as a guide, but must be carefully checked

(Also of course, by definition the archived link that the link above points to, carries out of date information and cannot (easily) be taken down!)
