and Vegetarianism.

This user uses Discord as veghistorian!

I am a historian of vegetarianism. I have created hundreds of Wikipedia biographies for vegetarians and improved thousands of articles. In July 2020 I founded the WikiProject Veganism and Vegetarianism for Wikipedia users to improve and maintain objectivity on veganism and vegetarianism related articles. I am in the top 2500 editors for the list of Wikipedians by article count.

• Articles I have created
• Email me for any questions about vegan or vegetarian history
• I am on Discord as veghistorian, send me a friend request to talk about veganism or vegetarianism
• From June 2025 my activity here will be restricted to weekends and some late nights. I am authoring a book (published 2026) so will be less active until completion

		Mary Wollstonecraft Award
		On behalf of WP:WPWW, thank you for creating the recent new article on Jean Hewitt, an early advocate of natural foods, who wrote a number of popular cookbooks, four of which received the James Beard Food and Beverage Book Award. --Rosiestep (talk) 19:03, 1 May 2020 (UTC)

		The Barnstar of Diligence
		Just as Brian Tomasik took his personal experience with suffering and ran with it to create a corpus of influential literature to help all the world, you and Throughthemind expanded my tiny stub about him with high-quality thoroughness beyond what I'd have expected of any two editors here.
