Name?

[edit]

After some deliberation, I deleted three paragraphs of uncited opinions.

Is Kuttab his real name? If I'm not mistaken, it means "writer" (or something like that) in Arabic.WQUlrich (talk) 05:08, 18 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, Kuttab is his surname, and yes it does mean "Writer". As with many surnames from different cultures, his name is from the vocation or avocation of one of his ancestors. I know this because I'm married to one of his cousins. Daoud maintains a web presence on facebook and also at http://www.daoudkuttab.com where you can find more details about him along with a large number of his writings.

PEN/Barbara Goldsmith Freedom to Write Award

[edit]

The article claimed Kuttab won the PEN/Barbara Goldsmith Freedom to Write Award, but he's not on their list of winners. I've pulled it now pending citation to a reliable source (not his website). Cheers Khazar (talk) 16:57, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I've also removed the Leipzig Media Institute award claim pending citation, since the previous one appeared to be an error or deliberately false info. -- Khazar (talk) 17:00, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
