This article presently makes some assertions that either need citation, or should be eliminated because they are arguable. While I personally wouldn't argue the article's assertions about Barbara Ehrenreich's literary reputation, I don't think this type of assertion is consistent with Wikipedia's "Neutral Point of View" policy unless it is couched as a citation of an appropriate reference. The assertion that the foundation is "left-wing" falls into a similar category; one would need to find a good reference who asserts that, as opposed to asserting it from the editors' perspective.

In addition to its program of literary awards, the Lannan Foundation runs a Lannan Residency Program. The Foundation does not include the writers selected for the residency program in its awards listings. There may be some sentiment amongst the Wikipedia editors that we should include a listing of the writers and artists selected for the program - in which case someone needs to step up and do it. There are several dozen people who have done these residencies so far. Easchiff 03:04, 29 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
