The controversy section should be updated to include her most recent controversy, the "Are You Racist?" video on her YouTube channel where she made an acronym out of the n-word to refer to a black baby doll and wrote "ban cruelty, not words" at the bottom.

We have yet to verify
Hi there! I'm going to ping, but this is a note to everyone in particular:

So, i see that someone claimed to be That Vegan Teacher on the deletion discussion page– really weird for me, imma be honest. But we haven't verified this user's identity and should not be making any biographical edits unless we can back this up with primary sources, particularly from her website. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 17:31, 12 March 2021 (UTC)

racist and homophobic
It seems very WP:WEASEL to write "Diekmeyer's content was sometimes characterized as racist and homophobic", since this is a WP:BLP we need to do better here. This should be much more clear: who called her comments what. Otherwise this needs to be removed. Looking at the four sources, I could only find references to an online petition and a reference to another youtuber actually classifying her comments. Just for comparison, I looked at articles of William John Beattie, Wolfgang Droege (some actual Nazis) and it seems strange that the language in this article is more strong and the characterization of actual Nazis/white supremacist. --hroest 18:25, 12 March 2021 (UTC)
 * we can inline attribute to The Daily Dot.theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 19:39, 12 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Also, in terms of the tone on each, I think that says more about how Neo-Nazi isn't a buzzword when it's self proclaimed, as opposed to racism being a hot topic right now and much more of a buzzword when it's just an allegation. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 23:00, 12 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I think we could spell out "Rachel Kiley at the Daily Dot" for attribution; honestly I dont know how relevant the Daily Dot is. Clearly having a random youtuber D'Angelo Wallace calling her racist is probably not something that we should record here. We want to write an Encyclopedia and not become the official record of which "content creator" called which other "content creator" a bad word. The accusation coming from the Daily Dot seems to be more relevant and a better source, as they seem to be a legitimate media outlet even though the journalists article history looks more like she is writing a column than real journalism. My main concern is the impact this could have on a person in real life if we record these accusations here and we should be *extra* careful here due to WP:BLP, on the other hand this is what the subject is mainly known for and she seems to be a somewhat public figure by now. --hroest 01:11, 13 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I have changed this now to "Rachel Kiley at the Daily Dot has characterized some of Diekmeyer's content as racist and homophobic" since I could not find any other sources that specifically support this statement. I hope you are ok with that? I also changed to "some of" her content since the characterization only describes a subset of her content as racist/homophobic, not all of it. Furthermore, since this seems to be a case where a subject does not agree with this characterization, I think a statement needs to be added to reflect this? See for example Donald_Trump#Racial_views on how to handle such a situation. --hroest 15:19, 27 March 2021 (UTC)

theleekycauldron, Diekmeyer was recently accused of spelling the racist N-word with a Miss Elaina doll next to it. She has been in a lot of controversy for this, and PBS Kids was made aware of this. I don't think we should add it to the article just yet, though. KullyKeemaKa (talk) 23:46, 12 March 2021 (UTC)

Scratch that, it's already on the article, I just don't think we should add to it or edit it yet. KullyKeemaKa (talk) 00:19, 13 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Why not? As long as we follow WP:RS, WP:NPOV, and WP:BLP, I see no reason to exclude content, especially on the basis of due weight. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 00:40, 13 March 2021 (UTC)

That works fine :) I don't WP:OWN this page. Also, yeah adding her response would be a good idea. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 18:31, 27 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Sounds like a good idea, but I guess that response would be in her videos or here, but unattributed which I am currently not willing or interested to watch. Her response in the AfD discussion at least clearly indicates her position that she would dispute the claims of being racist/homophobic. --hroest 19:17, 27 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I think it's important to remember that we can't verify that that was actually That Vegan Teacher. Otherwise, yeah i don't want to watch that video. I will if you don't want to, though. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 21:20, 27 March 2021 (UTC)

N-Word
Pinging WP:Offensive material pretty clearly spells out we can't just use "n-word". I haven't seen the original video, so if someone wants to describe exactly how it was used, we probably have to correct the record. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 00:49, 13 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I think "mentioning" the word is not quite the way to go about it since this could mean a ton of different things, if you search Wikipedia for the word it is almost always a complete quote to make sure people are not cited out of context. --hroest 01:14, 13 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Absolutely, it's worth expanding on. But we shouldn't leave it as a mince, right? theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 01:18, 13 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I agree, policy is to use the actual word and not censor anything. See Offensive material. --hroest 01:23, 13 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Just saw this, understood. KullyKeemaKa (talk) 20:51, 13 March 2021 (UTC)

Unreliable sources
This article (permalink) is dependent on a number of unreliable sources: I will be editing the article shortly to remove information dependent on these sources. Per WP:BLP, please do not restore the content without providing a more reliable source. Mz7 (talk) 18:54, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Cite note 1 – This Medium article is clearly unsuitable for Wikipedia because it is user-generated content. The author of the Medium article, "Celebrityegy", is not reputable.
 * Cite note 2 – This Biography Daily article is unreliable because the website lacks professional editorial oversight. If you look at their About Us page, their feedback and complaints email address is a gmail address, which is a red flag that this is an amateur operation rather than a serious journalism organization.
 * Cite note 13 – Per WP:BI, there is generally no consensus on the reliability of Business Insider, but for biographical information about a living person, I think we should try to find higher quality sources.

What did you see?
why did you revert all your edits? How do you know her name is Karen Elizabeth? theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 06:14, 18 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Seconding this. I think you make a good point that cited source refers to the subject as "Kadie Karen Diekmeyer" and not "Kadie Elizabeth Diekmeyer" . Looking back, I'm not sure where "Kadie Elizabeth Diekmeyer" even came from. I've edited the article to reflect this. Mz7 (talk) 22:04, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I can confirm that Diekmeyer's personal information was leaked, including her real full name. Although doxxing is normally a form of harassment, the information contained within doxxes is typically accurate. Diekmeyer goes by Kadie to prevent her from being found by Canadian authorities after breaking several Canadian hate speech laws, and this is why very few sources know her real full name. KullyKeemaKa (talk) 00:56, 24 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Any reliable sources to confirm? we can't use doxxed information, that seems to close to WP:OR since anyone can upload stuff there. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 02:35, 24 March 2021 (UTC)

Why Is this Even A Wikipedia Page?
There is no reason for this person to have a Wikipedia page, she is not person of interest and the page is very poorly sourced. Also, this page seems to be nothing more than a means to promote her. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.39.14.187 (talk) 02:40, 25 March 2021 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 25 March 2021: Remove links to her social media
Remove the links to her YouTube channel and other social media pages. I support there being a public record of what she has done, but let's not direct people at her pages to give her views and promote her in the algorithms. 216.49.149.172 (talk) 03:20, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
 * ❌ Our interest here is as an information resource, if readers want access to that material they are allowed to pursue it no matter how controversial it is. See: WP:CENSOR. — Coffee  //  have a ☕️ //  beans  // 03:24, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
 * She shouldn’t have a Wikipedia page to begin with... since when did Wikipedia start doing pages on people who are on social media? She meets none of the criteria of Wikipedia to begin with as she has no significant impact on history, she’s not a celebrity or any actual famous person. Just some random person on the internet that rubbed people the wrong way and got banned on a social media platform. If you ask me this whole page is meant to do nothing but promote a controversial person that people are trying to get taken off the internet before she causes real harm and thanks to this stupid article, Wikipedia has now made a social media person a person of interest... good job... Wikipedia is now becoming a garbage gossip site instead of an online encyclopedia...
 * Here are our standards for inclusion of an article in Wikipedia. If you have a registered account, you are free to nominate this article for deletion with specific policy-based reasons as to why this article should not be on Wikipedia. I will tell you, however, that a discussion already took place, and the general consensus was that this article meets the barriers to be included. Beyond that, whether or not we promote her ideology is not of our concern, as long as we present her in accordance of our policies for living people and due weight. We don't present all ideologies as equal, and we do make sure to not give false legitimacy, but if someone decides anyway to follow her, that's not our problem. The whole point of Wikipedia is that we can't make people "persons of interest"– we can only write articles about people if they have notoriety according to the inclusion guidelines above. Impact on history is not our barrier. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 04:05, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
 * my mistake, pinged the wrong IP. You can answer here. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 04:08, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
 * not buying any of it. There is no reason to include this person on Wikipedia. This “article” was created based on your clear EXCUSES for the sole purpose of promoting That Vegan Teacher. She is not a celebrity nor is she a person of interest so she does not need a Wikipedia page just cause she got banned off TikTok. And honestly that’s all your doing is making EXCUSES for promoting her cause why else would you post about a person who isn’t a celebrity or person of interest? She’s a damn TikToker. Not every person who is isn’t famous who uses TikTok isn’t on Wikipedia, except her. Why this specific insignificant person? To you leekcauldron all I got to say is save it. Your just making excuses. It’s clear you intended to promote this person...
 * I got banned off TikTok, you gonna do an article on me? Hmm? See? Nothing but BS. Thanks for making That Vegan Teacher a person of interest and making it harder to get her off the internet. You should be ashamed of yourself...
 * Your argument is weak. That Vegan Teacher is not a notable person cause she made headlines for making controversial videos that led to her being banned on TikTok. Also, That Vegan Teacher has not ever posted the site you claim is her official site, it’s not linked on any of her social media accounts and you can’t find it via google searching, how did you get it? VERY SUSPICIOUS!!! 🤔
 * This “article” was created based on your clear EXCUSES for the sole purpose of promoting That Vegan Teacher. Let's just be clear here– my personal opinion of That Vegan Teacher is that she is a liar, a racist, a homophobe, and as a member of the LGBTQ community, her comments have deeply hurt me and others. That's irrelevant here– I'm not at liberty to editorialize. I can only relay what reliable sources have said about her.
 * And to be clear, this is not a place where we discuss the subject of the article. My opinion is rather irrelevant. If you believe that this article is biased towards the subject unfairly, you are more than welcome to file an edit request, or just nominate the article for deletion if you think it should be removed altogether. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 07:21, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
 * She is not a celebrity nor is she a person of interest so she does not need a Wikipedia page just cause she got banned off TikTok. According to our guidelines for notability, the barrier for inclusion into wikipedia is not being a celebrity, or person of interest– if a person has received significant, in-depth coverage from multiple reliable sources, it passes our criteria for inclusion into Wikipedia.
 * I got banned off TikTok, you gonna do an article on me? If you can point me to articles from The Daily Dot, Insider Inc., and Fox News detailing who you are, what you stand for, why you got banned, your impact on social media, and the reaction you've inspired, let me know– I will personally write your article.
 * That Vegan Teacher is not a notable person cause she made headlines for making controversial videos that led to her being banned on TikTok. We had a discussion about this very topic a few days ago– we would have welcomed your input. However, the consensus was that inspiring controversy repeatedly, with reliable sources covering the controversy, does make her notable, per our inclusion guidelines. She's made the headlines on multiple separate occasions, and clearly passes our guidelines for inclusion. If you disagree, please nominate this article for deletion.
 * Also, That Vegan Teacher has not ever posted the site you claim is her official site, it’s not linked on any of her social media accounts and you can’t find it via google searching, how did you get it? I'm not 100% whether I added that website, or someone else did– feel free to check WikiBlame (I don't own this page). If I did, I'll take full responsibility. If you think that website should be removed, you're more than welcome to file a semi-protected edit request. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 07:17, 25 March 2021 (UTC)

Another thread about sources
What are our thoughts on the reliability of Plant Based News and HITC as sources for this BLP? WP:BLP requires that we use only the highest quality sources for our articles, and I have never heard of either source before. In my view, there is insufficient data on the quality of these sources' journalism and editorial oversight for us to include information from them in this article. Given the contentious nature of the subject, I think there is a high risk of WP:BLPGOSSIP happening, so we should be especially careful about which specific sources we are using to justify including information in the article. Mz7 (talk) 05:07, 13 April 2021 (UTC)
 * To add to this, the article also cites Newsweek, which per WP:RSP is not considered a reliable source post-2013, as well as Insider, for which there is no consensus on its reliability per WP:BI. Overall, the sourcing in this article is quite suboptimal for a biography of a living person, and for that reason I have to sympathize with some of the IPs above who question whether the previous AfD discussion correctly decided that this subject actually passes WP:GNG. Mz7 (talk) 05:13, 13 April 2021 (UTC)
 * I agree that the sources you mentioned above aren't reliable and should be removed, with the exception of Insider, that needs further debate. But even without those, between The Daily Dot, which is RSP-greenlit, 7news.com.au, and Fox (also WP:RSP-greenlit), this article passes WP:GNG regardless, in my opinion. The stories about Gordon Ramsey and organ donations aren't really covered well enough to add without becoming WP:BLPGOSSIP. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 05:27, 13 April 2021 (UTC)
 * , fair enough. At some point tomorrow I'll probably edit this article to address the sourcing issues. Mz7 (talk) 07:02, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

ImJustNicole (talk) 22:11, 24 May 2021 (UTC) That vegan teacher is a Youtuber and ticktocker who talks about why you should be vegan. She is known to say offensive things about nonvegan people and she randomly duets people on ticktock and tells them to be vegan, in sometimes offensive ways. She is popular for making vegans look bad and most people disagree with what she says.

This is just a suggested request as there is no way to actually verify that thatveganteacher is actually a real-life teacher and that claim is unsourced and just cause thatveganteacher claims she is a teacher she could be just making that up like she did with her claims that she was a nurse. So I suggested removing any references that she has an actual occupation as a teacher until it can be proven through reliable sources that she is one.

Do not update her subscriber count or the like without a reliable source
YouTube itself is not a reliable source, and cannot be used to update the subscriber count. The source we have right now says 40 000, and that's how it's staying until a reliable source is added. Clear friend  a  💬 15:43, 10 July 2021 (UTC)

 * Not on Wikipedia. No, it's not automatically cited, someone manually has to do that. Please learn your Wikipedia policies. See WP:RSPYT, for more information. It's not a reliable source for checking them, because it's primary. You must have a reliable news article or something with their subscriber count, whether it's outdated or not.

 * "Please learn your Wikipedia policies." – Okay? In the policy you linked, YouTube talks about videos uploaded by anonymous users, not updating subscriber and view counts.
 * "Most videos on YouTube are anonymous, self-published, and unverifiable, and should not be used at all. Content uploaded from a verified official account, such as that of a news organization, may be treated as originating from the uploader and therefore inheriting their level of reliability.

 * Well, there's some chance I'm wrong, since a strict interpretation of WP:ABOUTSELF would necessitate that Diekmeyer is the only one who can assert her sexuality, and therefore a primary source is enough. However, according to the discussions at Talk:Trisha Paytas, I'm going to say that there's some foundation to say that publicity stunts or other ploys for attention don't necessarily translate to inclusion in the article. Given Diekmeyer's history of incendiary activism and accusations of homophobia, it's hard to give her the benefit of the doubt on that one. Furthermore, Diekmeyer's bisexuality isn't relevant to her notability—I could see inclusion if a secondary source thought it relevant enough to include in an article about her, but it looks like it's just one YouTube video. So, I don't see a reason to include it in the article. I could be wrong, but i don't think it's something that necessitates inclusion. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 18:12, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
 * There's some argument to including a blurb in the article that attributes directly to her, and not including it in the categories. The categories are Wikipedia's own voice. They assert that something is factual. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 18:13, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Ok, I can understand this. Some people did it to gain attention from others, but does the "Critics of religions" need a secondary source? I think this one does not. Criticism is an opinion so I can cite her video directly without using a secondary source, can't I? Well, again I can't find any secondary, reliable sources for it, but I believe it doesn't need one. What's your opinion? —Nicholas Michael Halim (talk) 23:39, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
 * I'd agree, on that one you're probably fine theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 02:01, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
 * It is against Wikipedia policy to add categories that are not supported by sources on the article. We need independent secondary sources for the vegan teacher being a critic of Christianity or religion, not a YouTube video. Until reliable references are found the categories should not be on the article, it is a BLP violation. Psychologist Guy (talk) 22:47, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
 * That's a fair point, actually. It shouldn't be in the categories unless it's relevant enough to the article to include, which this isn't. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 22:57, 5 November 2021 (UTC)

Some claims are not supported by a reliable source
The personal life section claims that she promotes anti-racism and LGBTQ rights. These claims, however, are backed only by a YouTube video on her own channel which is not a reliable source. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AmazingTrilobite (talk • contribs) 18:54, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Oh really? What do you think is more reliable than what comes from her own mouth? YouTube video is enough, since we don't have much press reports about her. Let her do more controversy first. —Nicholas Michael Halim (talk) 21:58, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Her own statements in a YouTube video may be enough to support a claim like her identifying as a feminist, but not for claims like her promoting anti-racism and LGBTQ rights. She has also made statements in a now deleted TikTok video that contradict her claim about her promoting LGBTQ rights. You can see for yourself in this video (around the 2:16 mark). AmazingTrilobite (talk) 08:47, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
 * No one cares. Even if her statements are contradictive—at least for you, not for me, who takes it as entertainment rather than a really big problem—so what? Diekmeyer has said it clearly, without any confusions, that she is an LGBT rights and anti-racism activist. I know, I know that she has made some homophobic comments or, probably, racist ones, but that does not prove anything. She criticised homosexual people for coming out as homosexual rather than coming out as an animal rights activist; I found it laughable, honestly, just for daily entertainment, unlike you who took that too seriously.


 * One, it is not a problem if one says that he or she is supportive of the LGBT community, and at the same time making comments that the society found to be homophobic. Yeah, it's not normal, at least for most people but it is Diekmeyer not the entire society. Let her deal with her own life. She doesn't care about the criticism, even if you attack her continuously, she won't stop, got it? I have watched the given video but that doesn't prove anything on Diekmeyer's Wikipedia page.


 * Two, on her racism. I honestly don't get for this one. Which racism you are referring to? Since, I don't really care about her personal life and just edited her page because I watched her videos for fun and then got some ideas to edit her Wikipedia pages, since Diekmeyer has one, can you give me a source? I would like to watch that one because I don't know that she is a racist too, as you said.


 * Three, Wikipedia also mentions of her homophobic comments in the "Career" section. Please take a look. How this makes her unappropriated to be included as an LGBT rights activist? Doesn't she say that herself? Probably, people disagrees with it because of her past homophobic comments but she really doesn't care, because she will do anything to promote animal rights. Animals are more important to Diekmeyer than her own image. Ok, go back to the Wikipedia problem. A label can be only attached to someone if he or she, on whom the label is attached to, claimed him or herself with the label. This is controversial, I know, but one's own mouth is the most reliable to be a source of his or her own biography. Maybe it is something made up but you don't live his or her life so you don't know what really happens. —Nicholas Michael Halim (talk) 09:47, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
 * 1. If you want something that can be supported by her statements then "She identifies as a feminist and promotes anti-racism and LGBT rights" could be changed to something along the lines of "She identifies as a feminist and claims to promote anti-racism and LGBT rights".
 * 2. I haven't said anything about racism other than her video doesn't support the claim that she promotes anti-racism. AmazingTrilobite (talk) 10:51, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Ok, I agree with your suggestion. Changed —Nicholas Michael Halim (talk) 10:57, 23 March 2022 (UTC)

GA
This article is small but long enough to get the good article status. What's your opinion? Before that, since primary sources are dominant in the article, please anyone help me to get more secondary sources for it. Thank you. —Nicholas Michael Halim (talk) 03:31, 12 April 2022 (UTC)

It could be better.
A few months ago I edited this article and it seemed higher quality then it is currently. This revision seems not as accurate as when I was working on it, and less verifiable. Krystal Kalb (talk) 05:51, 27 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Elaborate please? —Nicholas Michael Halim (talk) 06:22, 27 April 2022 (UTC)
 * For example, it says she is a singer-songwriter here, and though she has made some songs, they are just small, unprofessional ones to promote veganism (please tell me if I am wrong). Krystal Kalb (talk) 08:28, 28 April 2022 (UTC)
 * What do you mean? Her small career as a singer-songwriter does not mean that she is not a singer-songwriter. She had created 47 songs by 1999; that's a lot of songs, which means it is notable enough to be added in the lead. —Nicholas Michael Halim (talk) 09:30, 28 April 2022 (UTC)

Why is this a article?
TVT is just known for controversy and starting stuff on TikTok and YouTube. Does it need a Wikipedia page? No. Overall this page feels like something from Fandom Wikis. SMBMovieFan (talk) 07:38, 16 October 2022 (UTC)


 * I agree that the tone of the article can be unencyclopedic (as well as the sources used), but I think this article would pass if put up for deletion. But if you think this page warrants it, go ahead and nominate. QueenofBithynia (talk) 21:38, 16 October 2022 (UTC)

well all information is not correct and that vegan teacher is using Veganism as a weapon to attack poeple for being non vegan. Like YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Cameo and other media she using for attacking. She has raped two children. One in Canada somewhere near her house she has a photo of that sent to poeple and other children was a child was raped by Katie Karen diekmeyer in Italy back lane.she on Cameo to draw other people children in so she can rape them. That vegan teacher aka Kadie Karen diekmeyer told me her plans and her husband is with the children. Stuff like Twitter and Cameo are very easy to draw children because kids can get easy brainwashed by her fake veganism threats message. 2A02:C7C:D83F:D200:D0BE:6D47:A471:B2B6 (talk) 14:21, 26 December 2023 (UTC)

That Vegan Teacher recent videos
You guys have got to update her controversies section because she's gotten more unhinged. She recently posted two videos: one saying the slur "Tranny" in the title, and the second titled "Hitler was a good guy!"
