No, "push readers away" is leterally what that is doing.

Is there any reason for the info not to be there?

Other than the fact that we don't consider it cannon - and let's face it; call it whatever you like and claim we don't have this or that that's what it is - No.

Should we activley work on a non stop basis to study and contribute to these stories?

No, because we have better things to do.

Should we then remove info from the page?

No.

There is no reason to remove info from the pages. I know you dislike people constantly working on these pages, but that's no reason to remove the info all together.

Connections to other stories exist within these Non-DWU stories. They often thrive off each other, or Doctor Who stories before a point. Facts and trivia can be born from continuity. Continuity sections are needed to document all of these things, and if not continuity sections, then something else - references, DWU connections, Connections; call it whatever. We can call "Non-Cannon" "Non-DWU", so why not.

You wonder why I want to contribute and care for these non-cannon stories, and the truth is, I don't. These stories fail to interest me. Those that do interest me because I think they should be in-universe stories. But those that are "non-DWU" stories I don't want to be treated like garbage. Why should we treat valid sources and things we don't cover as different things? They're basically the same, except one we count as "Cannon", or "valid" or "covered" or however you care to put it.
