It'd be helpful if you had told us which "list" you are talking about. We aren't clairvoyant.
AFAIK, mygmrs.com is pretty much the only online resource that has a compiled list of repeaters. The info is supplied by the repeater owners and many of them do a dismal job of maintaining the info after they initially post it. If that is the list you referred to, then there really isn't much more you can do.
If you can identify repeaters that are operational by call sign, you can look up the licensee info and try to contact them through other means (phone, letter, etc.)
Beyond that, repeaters are private property and if the operators aren't reachable, that's pretty much the end of the road. Their house, their rules.
