Comment: all three. Per , it is not encyclopedic to give lists of people who revealed in an interview once that they had adopted a certain lifestyle choice. We wouldn't have an article List of people who bicycle to work

Comment: list of vegans and list of vegetarians. The rationale in the deletion proposal, and most of the arguments for deletion, have nothing to do with the accepted #REASON|reasons for deletion in Wikipedia's deletion policy. An exception is , which does merit some consideration. Are these people "loosely associated"? I think the answer comes from many of the same sources that support  (see the footnotes I have added to the top of List of vegetarians). These sources identify various vegetarians and vegans ''and'' talk about the significance to them - why they adopted it, how it has affected their lives. That is what should be included, not the irrelevant information that {{U|Deacon Vorbis}} rightly objects to. But that's a matter for the talk page

Comment: Not encyclopedic?  Please see ''https://www.britannica.com/list/8-of-historys-most-famous-vegetarians Encyclopedia Britannica'', the ''https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=3-braqoek0AC Cultural Encyclopedia of Vegetarianism'' or the ''https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=DOJMAgAAQBAJ&pg=RA2-PA520 The Oxford Encyclopedia of Food and Drink in America''.  These lists clearly pass  and that's what matters here, not some irrelevant ideas about categories.

Comment: per |BLP and |WWIN. These are a "dietary choices" that have been sourced from a single point in time. However, diets and lifestyles are susceptible to being changed at any point during a life (without getting media coverage to notify the world). Since  requires we use the highest grade of reliable sources and ''not'' write something wrong about people, then these lists present a unique maintenance challenge for ensuring that the information is correct at all times. Hint: No one is checking each entry on a regular basis to ensure that the information is still correct, and it's highly unlikely you could even find out that someone was ''no longer'' being a vegetarian (or vegan or pescatarian) because that is not news
