This plan would fail, because someone sophisticated enough to find the naming and shaming list of awfulness would probably already be sophisticated enough to realize that old, bad advice is bad and why it is, and where to find new, good information. The problem is not merely that bad old content exists, but there is a class of PHP developer who is insufficiently sophisticated to distinguish between good and bad information independently.

Whether that's a feature or a bug of PHP is an exercise I leave for the reader.
