Come on guys ... it is not really the issue. Picking on Wikipedia editors one by one with sniper fire is too expensive and too personal. For everyone that you kill, 10 more accounts have been set up (and at least 3 of those are real people rather than sockpuppets). And the cultists will only be able to accuse you of personally motivated bitterness using it against you.
It is a longer term battle than that. You want to stop people being sucked in, separate it from the funding trusts, inform the media what it really is and give then the language to describe it and the facts to support that ... encourage schools and childsafe software set ups to block it, persistently eroding away at its credibility.
If your "community" is Hollywood ColScott, I am pretty damned sure that there are plenty of people pissed off with Jimbo Wales and if you passed your Colonel's hat around, there would be many others willing to contribute to a war chest to fight it.
BTW, you do not need a lawyer's letter to demand information if you intend to carry out legal proceedings. You have the perfect right to carry out legal proceedings in personal and informing them that you are is sufficient at law. You do not need to be a law enforcement officer either, which is what jerks usually tell people ... but it is not true.
The idea of a documentary is a wonderful idea, visually it could blow Middle-Americas eyes out.
You do a whole section on successful breaching, vandalism and comic editing. POV warriors, show the ridiculous discussions that go on, the anatomy of banning, the sheer ugly dishonest and nastiness of many of them ... do some Michael Moore-style doorstepping ..., mix the child admins with all the amateur hard core porn, and pin Jimbo and Sue down under the lights of an interview.
Find out if that Amsterdam rumour was true ... and go ask the funding foundations what they think is "educational" of RichieX fuck pics or Stan Spanker's red assed schoolgirl photo.
You might even make some money back by selling to the networks (so cut an adult version for the porn channels too). In fact, a whole programme on "How to find and upload Wikipedia fap material" might be a program in itself ... "Wikipedia Porn Review" ... you could do a weekly slot for updates.
