Can we talk about the "Sosig meme" photo in the infobox? Is that the best license-free photo there is? -Alexceltare2 (talk) 10:12, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Unclear text

In the Head chef section, towards the end of the third paragraph, it says "In November 2006, Gordon Ramsay at the London opened in New York City".

There seems to be something wrong with the above text but I'm not sure what was intended to be written. Giwrgosk2003 (talk) 12:42, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"Gordon Ramsay at the London" is the name of the restaurant. Seasider53 (talk) 13:30, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Seasider53 , thanks for the clarification. That was my initial understanding but a restaurant of that name wasn't listed in the official website, hence the confusion. I did find it after your comment and a more thorough search though (and apparently it's been closed quite a while ago). Giwrgosk2003 (talk) 13:32, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Full name?

Should Gordon Ramsay's full name be presented as "Gordon James Ramsay, Jr."? I ask because his father is stated as being "Gordon James Ramsay, Sr.", so it's fair enough as a editing request. 61.69.247.8 (talk) 07:31, 10 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

-This page lists Gordon as British, but he is Scottish born and identifies as Scottish in all his work. [[Special:Contributions/2600:4040:7407:4400:E5F6:DC3B:EEF6:BD04|2600:4040:7407:4400:E5F6:DC3B:EEF6:BD04]] ([[User talk:2600:4040:7407:4400:E5F6:DC3B:EEF6:BD04|talk]]) 03:50, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
-:Are you the same person who made the prior two reports which inaccurately state that Ramsay is not British? Obviously he is British. [[Scottish people]] are also [[British people]]. Do you have any evidence of his self-identification as Scottish exclusive of being British? [[User:DIYeditor|—DIYeditor]] ([[User talk:DIYeditor|talk]]) 06:30, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
-::However, it should be noted that Scottish is not English and that he is listed under English, not Scottish, cuisine. Of course, Gordon is British, but I think there may be a misidentification of him as being under English cuisine (though he certainly started his career chiefly in England, not Scotland) [[Special:Contributions/110.235.105.128|110.235.105.128]] ([[User talk:110.235.105.128|talk]]) 14:02, 31 May 2023 (UTC)
-:::There needs to be some consistency around this. Sure he's British, but he's also European too. Should he be listed as a "European British celebrity chef, restaurateur, television presenter, and writer." Probably not; next we'd take everybody up to "Earthling". Moreover, look at [[Rowan Atkinson]]'s article. Look at [[Paul McCartney]]'s. Look at [[Andrew Wiles]]'s. They're all listed as English, not British. It's more specific; it's better information. Gordon Ramsey should thus also be listed as Scottish and not British.[[User:Gr33nshorts|Gr33nshorts]] ([[User talk:Gr33nshorts|talk]]) 19:28, 29 July 2023 (UTC)
-::::I'm not sure what the policy is here, but at least in a situation where he's asked by Companies House for his nationality<ref>https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/officers/jskoLJkLiXdefuvxYnD3fDuZeXk/appointments</ref> (where Scottish is an allowed option) he has chosen British as opposed to Scottish. That would for me be strong enough grounds to prefer using British unless there is somewhere that it is evidenced that he'd rather be known as Scottish. This sort of identity thing is a bit more complicated than it just being information, it's a form of self-identification that some people take very seriously. [[User:FF0000|FF0000]] ([[User talk:FF0000|talk]]) 23:34, 1 October 2023 (UTC)
-:::::{{ping|FF0000}} Companies House goes by passport - it doesn't break people down by English, Scottish, Welsh, or Northern Irish for nationality. The only way to indicate association as Scotland would be listing nationality as British and country of residence as Scotland. However Gordon is most definitely Scottish and should be identified that way, the same way Welsh people are identified Welsh. The fact he moved away at age 9 doesn't make him not Scottish. (There is video of him where his Scottish accent comes out.) Further, he is identified as a "Scottish chef" by British newspapers including [https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/gordon-ramsay-chefs-must-turn-down-the-heat-to-avoid-burnout-zwljdkp8c ''[[The Times]]''] (London) and Scottish newspapers as well.
