From Rule 2199/8:
(+W) When a first-class person becomes a player for the first
time, e earns a White Ribbon. When a first-class person
has been a player continuously for at least three months,
was never a player before that period, and names another
player as eir mentor (and has not named a mentor in this
fashion before), the named player earns a White Ribbon.
