Actually, the name is mentioned on screen at least twice off the top of my head, TNG's Family and DS9's Paradise Lost. Meanwhile the Excelsior itself had three appearances, you forgot TSFS.

So nothing to justify the excelsior in a list of top starships.

Eh, what exactly is so impressive about the Enterprise B? Are those extra impulse engines and various other add-ons really enough to guarantee it a spot on the list of top starships instead of the Excelsior? Hell, that article itself even says the reason ths ship is great is because it's an Excelsior class ship.
