2022 University of Idaho killings	Re: Brian Christopher Kohberger - I couldn’t find any information about Brian Kohberger’s dietary preferences or thoughts about food. However, according to an article by Meaww, Kohberger was seen at Mad Greek restaurant in Moscow, Idaho at least twice to grab vegan pizza. Murder victims Xana Kernodle and Madison Mogen worked in the Mad Greek, a nonvegetarian restaurant. Presumably, none of the victims was plant-based. "The former employee tells PEOPLE that there was nothing suspicious about Kohberger's visits to the Mad Greek, and that he only stood out because he had a particular order: a strict vegan, Kohberger would check to make sure that his food had not come into contact with animal products."

Elizabeth Holmes	Include in project because she adopted vegan sproutarian 'juicetarian' diet in order to 'work without sleep' for 16 hours. Elizabeth Holmes is a former American businesswoman who was the founder and CEO of Theranos, a now-defunct health technology company. I couldn’t find any information about her dietary preferences except that she adopted a vegan diet early on in her career because she found that staying off animal products allowed her to work later without sleep. She worked 16 hours a day, seven days a week, and allegedly slept four hours a night. Instead, she ran on a green juice blend of spinach, parsley, wheatgrass, celery, and cucumber.

Johnstown, Pennsylvania	Johnstown, Pennsylvania is - and has long been the physical site of - the site of the annual NAVS Vegan Summerfest. The Johnstown, Pennsylvania article should be 'adopted' by this project. Article needs expansion of this theme - perhaps as a section on famous events in Johnstown, Pennsylvania. Volunteers should step forward and help develop a draft article; I would be willing to host a draft text for Johnstown PA subarticle for the annual NAVS vegetarian conference, which began in 1975 with the IVU's 23rd World Vegetarian Congress in Orono, Maine, where the North American Vegetarian Society was imagined and organized.

Plant milk	Needs a (small) section on World Plant Milk Day (August 22), which has been going on since 2019 (3 years now). Slogans are #TheFutureIsDairyFree and "Take the 7-day dairy-free challenge."[4][5][6][7][8][9][10] Celebrities include Olivia Fox Cabane, the organiser of the Alternative Protein Summit and Founder & CEO of The Global Alternative Food Awards (GAFAs), and developer of The Protein Landscape. Sponsors seem to have featured Oatly, Califia Farms, and Milkadamia in 2020 (but not Planet Oat, Chobani Oatmilk, or other plantmilks). The event is publicized by Plant Based News, and the event's website is: https://www.worldplantmilkday.com/ World Plant Milk Day (WPMD) as August 22 was first celebrated in 2017.[11][12][13] Without some Wikipedia text about World Plant Milk Day (WPMD) in SOME relevant article, the date cannot be included in other articles on annual celebrations or food celebrations or dates. Rush on this.	Not completed
Vivek Ramaswamy	Needs to be added to this project because he has repeatedly claimed that he is a Hindu vegetarian and believes that animals ought not to be killed for "culinary pleasure." MaynardClark (talk) 06:36, 12 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]	Not completed
Semi-vegetarianism	A history section of semi-vegetarian diets might be a good idea to add. I have managed to locate some of the earliest books on the topic. Jean Hewitt's International Meatless Cookbook, promoted a "part-time vegetarian diet" in 1980. Psychologist Guy (talk) 15:43, 22 August 2020 (UTC); Photographs needed; VB6 (vegan before six pm); macrobiotics, flexitarianism, religious fasting and religious vegetarianism during Lent and other periods[reply]	Not completed
Soy curls	The whole article was basically how to prepare them. I have deleted most of it and it is looking a bit empty. Nutritional info, production, and history would be good things to add.	I have added an two infoboxes, {{Infobox food}} and {{Infobox nutritional value}}, so that is done. I created a history section, but couldn't find much about them except that they were created around the year 2000 by Butler Foods. I don't know if there is much more to add. A better picture would be nice, and perhaps some information about production. I have moved it from Stub to Start
Taran Noah Smith	More on his life beyond his California-based non-dairy cheese manufacturer and restaurant, Playfood, specializing in vegan and organic foods, which he and his ex-wife [Heidi van Pelt​​ (m. 2001; div. 2007)] formed in 2005.[14] If Heidi van Pelt​​ is also vegan, she is a 'person of interest' in this 'vegan historical unfolding'! She is known as 'American Vegan Chef' so she is 'into it!'[15] At the age of 17, Smith married Heidi van Pelt on April 27, 2001. The marriage sparked much controversy due to the couple's age difference, as van Pelt was 16 years older. The couple filed for divorce on February 2, 2007.[16]	Not completed

Veganism	Needs discussion of zoonotic disease (animal disease that transmits to humans and whose spread is fastened by livestock breeding and hunting) as a motivator for veganism (e. g. avian and swine flu, MERS, Ebola, Covid, BSE). See Michael Greger talk and reports by Cambridge University, One Health, Surge activism, ProVeg International... You can start with the discussion in Intensive animal farming.Trimton (talk) 02:29, 15 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]	Unstarted
Veganuary	Impact of Veganuary: FARM's The Great American Meatout (March 20th) invited the general public to kick the meat habit (for life, for health, for the animals, for the ecosystem, for a variety of reasons) - and the termination of the agreement was left open-ended (usually it was read as a one-day commitment). Is there room in the article to include this note? MaynardClark (talk) 17:02, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]	Unstarted
Vegetarian Resource Group	Article needed, it should qualify for an article [1], [2]
Vegetarian and vegan dog diet	A really good article already exists, but update and make this Wikipedia article better	A really good article already exists, but update and make this Wikipedia article better
Vegetarian and vegan symbolism	Are these markings 'symbols' in any commonly-used sense (rather than certifications or labels)? Article (i) covers very few of the labels previously or currently used, or attempted, and (b) needs history section, and (iii) seems half-hearted in its scope. Needs discussion of 'cruelty-free products' labeling (e.g. PETA, commercial innovators, business efforts (failed and successful), etc.
Vegetarianism by country	Globalise. Most countries are not mentioned. The Asia section, for instance, describes only China, India, Israel, Singapore, Thailand, and Taiwan. Needs e. g.  Indonesia,  Bangladesh,  Pakistan,  Japan, and  Philippines. The South and Central America section is until now limited to Brazil.	Delete countries as you add them
	Victoria Moran - new book	Update article and include new book and tweak article's details.

• Merge Vegetarian and non-vegetarian marks (Indian symbol system) to Vegetarian and vegan symbolism (international symbol system) - The Indian system is interesting, but it may be best to have one good international article than low-quality national articles.
