Jared Leto "mostly vegan"

In the Ryan Seacrest interview he calls himself a "cheagan" when asked if he's a vegan or vegetarian, explaining that he's "a vegan most of the time until [he] cheats" by eating things that may not be vegan and how he's eaten a red velvet cake that may have had butter in it. He's also uploaded a picture of a similar cake on instagram, tagging it #chegan. --Rose (talk) 21:53, 20 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Timothy Bradley not vegan

According to the Guardian, Bradley is no longer vegan. "To gain more power in his 5ft 6in body, Bradley has abandoned his vegan diet for animal proteins." [4]. He should be removed from this list. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:C5E9:B450:F0F3:11AC:E054:7E76 (talk) 15:29, 27 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the note- I've removed him from the list and added him to the "former" list above. Josh Milburn (talk) 17:45, 27 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Paul McCartney

Any particular reason why Paul McCartney is not on the list?JS747 (talk) 17:31, 23 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

He is on the List of vegetarians. Are you sure he is vegan? It is well known he is vegetarian but I could not say if he is vegan also. Betty Logan (talk) 01:14, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Separation of people: dead or alive?

Hi guys

I'm interested in seeing some progress on this list of vegans, would it be possible to separate dead from alive vegans? --huggi - never stop exploring (talk) 04:32, 18 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think that is something that is usually done on lists of people is it? None of the articles listed at Category:Lists of people by ideology are structured in that way. If you think it would be helpful to provide some overview of who is alive and dead perhaps it would be better to provide birth/death dates. Betty Logan (talk) 04:53, 18 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Betty Logan that's okay, but "logically" there are no dead people on this list, right? Even then, luckily Adolf Hitler for e.g. was only a vegetarian, from outside it looks like Vegans have super powers and never die :) Birthday/death date would improve the list for everyone. --huggi - never stop exploring (talk) 04:56, 18 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
