DSN 100[edit]

One of the many issues with this article that I've noticed while making revisions in the past day or so concerns the mention of the DSN 100 list. The original claim did not include a citation, so I had a look myself and first found this page[1] from April 17, 2011, in which DXN is listed at #28; however, that does not appear to be the final list, as the webpage states: "The following contains the ranking for the 2011 DSN Global 100, our annual list of the top revenue-generating direct selling companies in the world. The list will be published in the June issue of Direct Selling News". Looking further, I found this page[2] from June 2011, which appears to be the final published list, and DXN is not on it. This casts considerable doubt on the reliability of the claim about DXN's inclusion. But going a level deeper, I don't even think that the DSN list is remotely relevant or that it meets WP:RS. Seems to be nothing but a sound-alike version of the Fortune 500 list but from what appears to be a non-notable and highly partisan source. Furthermore, DSN states that the revenue claims submitted by companies for inclusion on the list are not necessarily backed up by financial documents but rather merely by an unaudited claim submitted by the company CEO or CFO. For publicly traded companies, this isn't an issue because the revenue claims can be easily verified, but for privately held entities, like DXN, this is problematic.
