Summary:
New group for the wiki! The A.R.E, only criticism. This group analyzes and explains abnormal levels in more detail.
While I like the idea of what you're going for, I think it'd be best if you got an article involving them published before you got the group hub published.
Also
A.R.E or in its acronym "Anomaly Researchers and Explorers"
Switch the bolded portions.
"By excluding the human factor, aren't we risking the kind of personal detachment from a history that may, heaven forbid, lead us to one day repeat it? And in the end, isn't the human factor the only true difference between us and the enemy we now refer to as 'the living dead'?" -Max Brooks, from World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War, written by Max Brooks
Ok thanks for the help. Likewise, I already have 2 articles about this group, specifically Level 989 and You Trapped.
How far along with those are you? If you want I can give you crit on them.

I'll be completely honest, I feel like the name could use a change. Although, putting that aside and talking about the actual concept, I'd recommend making it a little more unique than them just being researchers. I say this for 2 reasons.
1. It would be called out as an M.E.G. Ripoff. The M.E.G., despite being a group dedicated to leaving, they also very much are dedicated to researching the Backrooms as its main researcher. If you make them too similar, it'd basically just have a new face over an already existing concept.
2. It'd get compared to the S.C.P. foundation. Something we don't need any more of on this wiki is to get compared to the S.C.P. foundation. For a good while here, people have compared the two and while some of the dust has settled, we really don't need more stuff drumming on up. I'm not saying we absolutely shouldn't do stuff like this, if executed right, it could be a unique alternative to the M.E.G. I'd recommend showing a page with them, they're tone, etc, before trying to release a page like this.
I don't really want this group, or really any group to be associated with L238, as I want it to be just a standalone level.
EDIT: There's also no need to add more information to said level, it's that straightforward lol (it also just feels like a random ass insult). You should've asked the respective authors of these for consent.
