User:Veg Historian
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.

A Note About Harassment
Since October 2024, I have been harassed by a group of racist trolls associated with the far-right anti-vegan Human Diversity Foundation. Their agenda has been to create misleading blogs, posts and websites with false claims and crazy conspiracy theories about my account. I am not their first victim; they have done it to one other user before and all their attempts failed to get the user banned so now their focus is on me. I had to delete my public email from the amount of abuse I received from these extremists. The owner of this organization is a well known far-right activist and banned Wikipedia user who was exposed by Hope not Hate and a Channel 4 investigation. This notorious individual has also published false and misleading "research" claiming vegans and vegetarians are "mentally ill". This isn't the first time I have been harassed, so far one user has been globally banned for it. Vegaphobia is sadly a common thing, especially amongst the far-right. My public email was deleted and as of January 2025 my username was changed. I will delete this note in 7 days, per WP:DENY. Veg Historian (talk) 20:01, 13 January 2025 (UTC)
