This is a clear case of broken mirroring. Unfortunately this is not immediately apparent (for the operator) through the IRRd software. Usually this is resolved by directly contacting the other side.

I've found RADB support staff to be responsive and courteous. radb-support@merit.edu (mailto:radb-support@merit.edu). This address is also useful for IRR hijacking issues or false entries.

Kind regards,

Job

On a similar note, Level3's database has many stale entries from WCGDB
which no longer exists as far as I can tell. Does anyone have a good
contact at Level3 for removing all the entries with a source: WCGDB?
There are some of mine that I'd like to have removed. Here is an
example of Charter's AS object:

mirrorable URLs?

there's a list here, which ticks at least one of your multiple requirements:
