Lamott's argument is that all writers write a bad first draft, and that the easiest way to start writing is to create an awful first draft. Lamott explains by saying that writers don't pump out writing like most people think writers get the mental block to and have to look for inspiration somewhere. What Lamott suggests is the idea of writing a long and dreadfully written first draft. Then after that is written you go back and look for inspiration within the almost childish writing.
Lamott's ideas do not support the same style of writing for the Wikipedia articles. This is because Lamott is a column writer and writes fiction. This kind of writing is different then Wikipedia articles because these articles are factual and the ideas come from references.
