into this, or rename this back to "Guidestar". As things stand it's a mess. Guidestar is better known than
Foundation Center, at least in some circles, but now is hidden under the least known "Candid" name. Very asymmetric for a supposedly common organization. The description of the merger is off

I think this is really one of those borderline cases where merging the articles as they are now would be fine, and if folks decide to expand the content out in a bit they could be split later, but it doesn't really matter in a general sense if they act as one article or two (or three), as they're not

The subject of this article has hired me to address the lack of citations. If any potential points of contention arise, I will raise them here before proceeding with edits. I'll also discuss banner removal here before doing it myself.
477:
Note: I note the comments on puffery above, but my view is that the former
Foundation article was written in prose rather than as a list. That's a stylistic difference, but not necessarily a problem.
