Is it irresponsible to collect these?[edit]

Hey, I'm not knowledgeable on wiki policies. But this navbox template worries me. While some of these challenges are harmless or wholesome (Ice Bucket), a good number of them are dangerous activities that have resulted in serious injury or death. Should we really be directing teenagers looking for info on water bottle flipping towards "suicide games"?

I understand we don't want to censor wikipedia, but it seems there should be some consideration of the ethics of how this information will be used. I think as it stands, this collection of "challenges" is likely to cause much more harm than whatever benefit is provided by listing them all together in this navbox.
