Unfortunately, one or more of your edits to the page White elephant gift exchange have not conformed to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and may be removed if they have not yet been. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media. Always remember to provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles. As well, all new biographies of living people must contain at least one reliable source.

Good point about the infinite loop! I've no attachment to the original wording, I just wanted to make it clear that Wikipedia needs a reliable source for any statement. Your version is clearly better, but it'd be good to have it backed up with a strong source if we can find one. I'll see what's out there. --McGeddon (talk) 20:46, 20 November 2012 (UTC)
