Rainn Wilson

[edit]

Rainn Wilson is not vegan, he can be seen here eating meat [4]. In Rainn Wilson and the Geography of Bliss he can be seen eating ice cream and cod liver oil. "In Iceland, which is high on the happiness index, he goes skinny-dipping in a cold fjord, plays with adorable lambs, eats ice cream and swallows a bottle of cod liver oil."

Jake Shields

[edit]

Jake Shields calls himself vegetarian [6]. Here he says he eats eggs [7], [8], [9]. He should be removed from the list. Psychologist Guy (talk) 15:23, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Recent removals

[edit]

Peter Dinklage is not vegan, he says he eats chicken and fish, that is confirmed here [10]. We have an interview for this. In regard to H. Jay Dinshah he should not be removed because there is no sourcing suggesting he was not vegan. Psychologist Guy (talk) 16:26, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry that was my mistake, I thought I added it back in. I was having difficulty reading how the coding worked.

vegetarian vs vegan in sources

[edit]

The article states clearly what is considered as vegan (no animal products). However that distinction might be less clear for some the listed people themselves and/or in the sources about them. In Tulsi Gabbard's case for instance I noticed that she literally describes herself as vegetarian (and not explicitly distinguishing it from veganism either, see [11]). So sourcing here might be a bit tricky and often come with some ambiguity.--Kmhkmh (talk) 10:09, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

People on the list can only be added if the source specifically uses the term "vegan". If "almost vegan", vegetarian or plant-based are used that is not vegan and it is WP:OR to include them. If you see any sources with vegetarian rather than vegan in them, then that person should be removed from the list. I did clear out some non-vegans from the list but obviously there is more work to do. Psychologist Guy (talk) 12:59, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sure, I'm just saying the sources themselves seem often/occasional rather ambiguous as illustrated by Gabbard's example above.--Kmhkmh (talk) 11:47, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Lizzo not vegan

[edit]

I am removing Lizzo as she is not vegan. A lot of recent sourcing on this [12], [13], [14], [15], [16] Psychologist Guy (talk) 16:56, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Profession group category?

[edit]

What do people think of adding an extra, more broad category of occupation? It would be helpful to be able to see, for example, all the vegan athletes/sportspeople together in a list (within the rest of the list)! The name of this category could perhaps be 'Field', 'Profession group', or 'Area of Impact'. Categories within this category might include:

  • Athlete/Sportsperson
  • Entertainer [e.g., Musicians, Actors, Performers]
  • Writer/Philosopher/Intellectual
  • Activist (e.g., Environmentalists, Animal Rights Advocates)
  • Public Figure (e.g., Politicians, Broadcasters)
  • Influencer/Content Creator
  • Scientist/Researcher
  • Business/Entrepreneur

There might be an issue with entrants falling into multiple categories though (e.g. Joe Duplantier is a musician and an animal rights activist)?

What are your thoughts? Wisemancheez (talk) 14:07, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's not really clear what you are suggesting. We already have the "occupation" column which tells readers what people on the list are notable for. Betty Logan (talk) 19:31, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
