Where does he actually cook?
Question for my friends on Wiki. Is Ramsay still actually cooking as a "behind the line" chef in command of his own brigade? With all of his activities, his numerous restaurants, does he actually work at one cooking meals? I.e., could you go to a specific restaurant on a specific night and have Ramsay be the guy in the back cooking the food? This would also be good info for the article, maybe add a sub-section talking about where he actually cooks, in which restaurant, and how often he does this. -OberRanks (talk) 23:08, 9 June 2013 (UTC)
- Almost no chef at Ramsay's level (multi-starred) still actually cooks much on-line. They're more like movie directors, if the analogy makes sense. Not true for all of them of course. Redzepi still cooks to an extent, there's an Italian woman with three stars who does a lot of the cooking in her own kitchen; Achatz didn't even miss more than a couple of services while he was being treated for cancer. Adria really only did much cooking at elBulliTaller in the final years, just sort of oversaw things during service.
- But. There was an article, maybe 2-3 years ago? about the opening of his restaurant in New York. I can't remember where I read it, but it was online. I seem to recall it also discussed Ramsay's financial and legal troubles at the time. In any case, there was an anecdote in the article (witnessed by the reporter) about him working the pass at the London restaurant. Best I can do, sorry, but I'd personally be pretty surprised if he did any actual cooking. So I think you're probably unlikely to find that. Chefs with that level of success don't cook much, same as super successful movie directors often move partly or wholly into producing. Not just a matter of success. Bourdain did a bit on No Reservations where he went back to Les Halles to cook through service. (Also mentioned in Medium Raw). The older you get, trust me, the harder it is to do, especially when you have 18 year olds whizzing around you. — The Potato Hose 04:15, 10 June 2013 (UTC)
- Really good info, thanks. I knew a girl about 3 years ago who went to London and saw him cooking in maybe this restaurant near a hotel I think was called the "Savoy". She asked how often he was there and they said it was rare and that he had to declare a "home base" for employment reasons to remain a certified chef; he had apparently chosen this restaurant to do so and cooked there about once or twice a month. The staff said he also dropped by and ran the kitchen from time to time, often with his usual flare that we see on TV. My friend also said he came out into the dining room when she was there and was one of the nicest people she ever met. Go figure! -OberRanks (talk) 18:53, 10 June 2013 (UTC)
- Without getting way too far into WP:NOTFORUM territory, your friend was quite possibly mistaken about GR's behaviour. I used to work for a chef who spent a couple years under Ramsay (just before he turned into Huge Media Star), and he told me that Ramsay does get passionate at work, but nothing like the abuse he throws out for TV. He's genuinely respectful of the people who work for him... as long as they are giving 100% all the time. I have met him in a professional setting and can confirm that he really is a nice guy. Huge though, he's like eleven feet tall. Anyway... if you can find the article I mentioned, it might be worth a brief note in this article. — The Potato Hose 19:15, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

Jean-Claude Breton
Hello everyone. I just wanted to point out the line in the article regarding Gordon Ramsay's television sub section. Jean-Claude Breton the maitre d' is not French but in fact he is Belgian. Can someone please correct this?. Thank you. Emmavt9 talk 03:37, 13 August 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks. Both the references here were dead but I managed to find an archive version for one of these and it looks like the name is wrong and it should be Jean-Baptiste Requien so I have changed the name in the text and added the archive version for one of the references. Keith D (talk) 10:44, 13 August 2013 (UTC)

Description
I don't think it accurate or helpful to describe him as a hotel manager. He is a chef, that is the basis of his notability. I don't think he has ever managed a hotel, and the reference does not make any such claim. Macdonald-ross (talk) 18:02, 17 September 2014 (UTC)
- He certainly owns at least one hotel http://www.gordonramsay.com/yorkandalbany/ Dbrodbeck (talk) 20:09, 17 September 2014 (UTC)
- Here is an article about it http://enroute.aircanada.com/en/articles/spending-the-night-at-gordon-ramsays-hotel Dbrodbeck (talk) 20:10, 17 September 2014 (UTC)
- That said, you are correct and I have fixed it. Dbrodbeck (talk) 20:20, 17 September 2014 (UTC)
- Owning a hotel does not mean that he works as a hotel manager or hotelier. The Banner talk 21:30, 23 September 2014 (UTC)
Personal Guaranty Lawsuit
Was going to put in a section on him losing the personal guaranty 20 year lease lawsuit in late 2014, but this article is locked. This needs to be put in there as it fills out the story about dismissing his father in law as well as demonstrating a very questionable business deal of public interest.
Legal proceedings is in the wrong place. it should be a sub-head under Gordon Ramsay Holdings, not under TV. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.230.63.53 (talk) 18:30, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

![]() | This edit request to Gordon Ramsay has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request. |
Please change "is a British chef and restaurateur." TO "is a Scottish chef and restaurateur." because 'Scottish' provides the specific NATIONALITY as opposed to a CITIZENSHIP - which is vague. This will assist in removing any ambiguity that may be inferred here and will offer greater clarity to the NATIONALITY of Gordon Ramsay, which is in fact - despite his upbringing in England - Scottish. Looking at other English/Scottish/Welsh/Irish personalities on wikipedia, it almost always states clearly the distinct nationality of the person, and I see no reason to object to this here. Please change it. Boeing707JT3D (talk) 21:54, 19 February 2015 (UTC)
- You have to do it with "Scottish born British" due to prior edit wars. The Banner talk 23:18, 19 February 2015 (UTC)
Shouldn't be called Scottish
I'm probably not going to change this as this is the exact type of thing that causes a stupid edit war, but he really shouldn't be called Scottish. You can see here how he refers to himself as English: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=51s2tfqU17g / http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-news/scots-superchef-gordon-ramsays-homeland-1110034. He may have been born in Scotland, but he was raised, lived most of his life, was educated etc in England. At the very least, he should be called 'British' if not English. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bloodloss (talk • contribs) 01:18, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
- I'm not British, although it's just half a day's sailing away from here. So i'm probably not aware of all the sensitivities surrounding this, but i am impartial. Seems this remark has gone uncontested so far, so i'll go ahead and change it to British, which seems the least controversial to me. Alternative would be something along the lines of "Scottish born English".PizzaMan (♨♨) 10:12, 24 October 2014 (UTC)
- Upon reading the archives, i think there's no clear consensus, so i'd advice using "British". Note that in my country, The Netherlands, it would be considered bordering on racist by some if you'd call someone who has a Dutch passport and was raised in The Netherlands for most of his formative years, but was born in Morocco, a Moroccan (rather than an Dutchman). We invented such terms as "new Dutchman". Do UK passports make a distinction? Either way, using the broadest term and then later clarifying where he was born and where he was raised seems the right course of action to me. Well, ok, calling him a European would be overdoing it ;-)PizzaMan (♨♨) 10:26, 24 October 2014 (UTC)
- Upon reading this, I think you are wrong by removing the mention of him being Scottish. Please be aware that the article was victim of the nationality-issues fired up by the recent Scottish referendum. I could notice that nationality-issue quite clearly, even here, as Dutchman in West-Ireland. The Banner talk 16:56, 6 November 2014 (UTC)
- Interesting reference. He says "I'm Scottish by birth" not that he feels a Scott. He says "There's so much Scottishness in me" but not if he himself feels there's enough scottishness to justify calling him Schottish. In fact he concludes that he's clearly in favor of the unity of the UK, stating that it's "quite cool". I think we should conclude that he doesn't like being forced to pick. Therefor we should use a broad term. Then again, Ramsay himself, implies that "British" refers more to english people, rather than UK citizens in general... So, the question is, is there a word for "person from the United Kingdom" and if so, is that word British? Or does British imply someone from England?PizzaMan (♨♨) 14:41, 19 November 2014 (UTC)
- The present text says "Scottish born British chef". That should be good enough to keep POV and nationality issues out of the door. The Banner talk 19:44, 19 November 2014 (UTC)
- I totally agree. By the way, there used to be an invisible "please don't edit" tag, should we restore it? PizzaMan (♨♨) 14:32, 22 November 2014 (UTC)

- Scottish born British? That makes no sense and is the first time I've ever seen it used. Scottish people are British, Scotland is geographically part of the island of Britain. Saying Scottish born British is like saying New Yorker born American or Dubliner born Irish, etc. Do you see where I'm coming from? All Scottish people hold British passports, it'd be best just to put British. British does not imply someone from England, it implies anyone from the United Kingdom. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Truefalse94 (talk • contribs) 07:10, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
- It makes perfect sense, especially because a lot of people were editwarring over the fact that Ramsay self-identified as being Scottish. And it is technically correct, as he has a British passport (officially issued by the United Kingdom) and he is born in Scotland. The Banner talk 14:43, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
- "Scottish born British" doesn't make a lot of sense to me either. As that implies the Scottish aren't British. And there are already plenty of people ignorant of that fact who just assume "English = British". I think he should either be referenced as simply "British" or "Scottish born English". Preferably British as the latter wouldn't sit well with a lot of Scots. Stevenbfg (talk) 22:46, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
- Scottish people already hold British passports, to say he is Scottish born British is like saying you're a Rotterdammer born Dutchman, it makes no sense. This is the first time ever in Wikipedia from thousands of pages I've visited that I've seen someone been put down as Scottish born British. Saying "Scottish born British" implies that Scottish & British are separate identities like Nigerian and Brazilian, you would only put that down for say, someone born in one sovereign country and brought up in another, for example Norwegian born Canadian - two separate sovereign nations whereas Scotland is already geographically and political part of Britain and the United Kingdom. Scottish born British makes nil sense. It'd be best if he was just put down as "British"

He does actually refer to himself as Scottish at the opening of this interview. So, if he's also described himself as 'English', then 'British' would be balanced. Taras (talk) 19:10, 10 July 2015 (UTC)

Hello, In the early cooking career section of this page it credits the "Rotarians" as sponsoring him through college. This is incorrect as it was in fact Round Table ( https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round_Table_(club)) The referenced source (his autobiography) does actually state this plus other sources such as the book 'Gordon Ramsay On Top of the World', corroborate.' Could I request that this be edited please?

Gordon James Ramsay, OBE (born 8 November 1966) is a Scottish-born British chef and restaurateur. should be changed to Gordon James Ramsay, OBE (born 8 November 1966) is a British chef and restaurateur.
British and Scottish are not mutually exclusive. All Wikipedia pages about Scots should preferably use the title in which the subjects self-identify with the most, or if it is not known, simply "British". This should especially be true in the came of someone with a less black and white background, being born and raised in two different constituent countries. Literallystop (talk) 22:17, 3 January 2016 (UTC)
Not done: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the
{{edit semi-protected}}
template. The current wording of Ramsay's nationality is a compromise backed by prior editor consensus established way back in 2008 - see Talk:Gordon Ramsay/Archive 2#Nationality. Apparently, back then, there were many editing conflicts regarding how to phrase the nationality, and this was the ultimately decided upon conclusion. Yes, I agree with you, it does seem a bit odd, but it should be discussed first before changed. Mz7 (talk) 05:31, 9 January 2016 (UTC)- Should be changed to British only. At the very least, the Wikipedia MOS should clarify this stuff. Kind of ridiculous, really. – Illegitimate Barrister, 19:16, 22 February 2016 (UTC)
Agreed, Scottish born British makes absolutely no sense, especially from a guy who has identified as English, just British should done it and keep everyone happy, if you are Scottish Born you are a British, we may as well start calling every English person a British Born English person, no logical sense at all.

Gordon Ramsay Holdings The Fat Cow is Closed/Controvery
I've never ever done this before, so be kind and gentle please! In the section on Gordon Ramsay holdings, the Fat Cow in Los Angeles is listed and talked about but it is now closed. The Eater stated it had some controversy too, about legal name changes for the place and also how the staff were treated. It was only open two years. This isn't mentioned anywhere I can see, but other restaurants that are closed now mention the closing date. Yelp reports it as closed too. [1] [2] Hopefully I did this right.

"Scottish-born British" term
Makes no sense. Scotland is in Britain. He was born in Scotland, so he is Scottish. End of. It's like saying English-born British or Welsh-born British. It sounds and reads stupidly. Either use Scottish (which should be, since he was born there) or British as that is island wide. Using both is is saying essentially the same thing and is unnecessarily long-winded. — Calvin999 00:02, 12 February 2016 (UTC)
- Agreed. It's like saying "Californian-born American" or "Manitoban-born Canadian", it's just redundant and sounds sodding ridiculous since Scotland is part of the bloody U.K. to begin with! I'm going to be bold and remove it. – Illegitimate Barrister, 20:40, 21 February 2016 (UTC)
- Reverted. It is an ugly compromise between POV-pushers who call him Scottisch and POV-pushers who call him British. Both is in fact correct. Compromise is already some three years old. The Banner talk 21:07, 21 February 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedian MOS does not have an explicit policy regarding identifying Britons, so the end result is that ridiculous things like this are to be expected. – Illegitimate Barrister, 00:18, 22 February 2016 (UTC)

- I think it should be changed to British. If not, then at least don't make it sound like he was born in another country. As mentioned, it's like saying Californian-born American, when California is the US and not a foreign nation (Unless you're from Texas reminiscing the ol Republic of Texas).

But the thing is that it's all under the sovereign state of the UK. Thus in Wikipedia, we don't mention the country nor ethnic background, we go directly to the sovereign state, which is above the country because it sounds like he comes from another sovereign state.

- The fact that Scottish-born keeps getting removed (I'm the latest) is telling. It's an extraneous term. Nowhere will you see him described in such a way. The arbitrary hidden note ("please don't change his nationality")...exactly, don't change what he is commonly known as.

- Scottish-born British would only be appropriate if the two were not the same thing (for instance if Scotland were independent). Otherwise it's redundant. Ramsay being a Brit, that's what he is. What 'either side' (if there are sides in this) think is irrelevant. I've added his background to the lede which will hopefully end any issue. RyanTQuinn (talk) 00:46, 4 August 2016 (UTC))

What is Scottish?
I have already asked a few times how somebody can qualify as being Scottish as that is th very reason of a lot of hassle on this page. There should be more Scottish people around than just Sean Connery! The Banner talk 18:56, 25 August 2016 (UTC)
- On Wikipedia, the gold standard for identity is how someone describes themself, so if you can find an unambiguous statement of "I am British" or "I am Scottish" then go with that. Otherwise - British is black or white depending on whether you have a passport or not, Scottish is a shade of grey. You can have people who live all their lives in Scotland, who would identify themselves as British rather than Scottish, conversely you have the likes of Sean Connery who has lived most of his life outside Scotland but identifies as firmly Scots. So there's no fixed answer to your question. I identify as British, but I guess I have a classic Anglo-Scots background with family members who have lived all their lives on one or other side of the border, and blood ties to both England and Scotland that go back centuries. So I completely understand Ramsay when he talks of having Scottishness in him - but just speaking for myself that element of Scottishness doesn't make me Scottish, it makes me British with Scottish heritage. The current article gives the passport definition of Ramsay's nationality, and mentions the birthplace and upbringing in the next sentence. In the absence of definite word from the man himself, that looks right to me. Le Deluge (talk) 14:33, 31 August 2016 (UTC)
- Ow, there is in fact evidence that he self-identifies as Scottish. But sources who confirm that are routinely rejected and removed. The Banner talk 15:07, 31 August 2016 (UTC)
- I can't see any self-identification as Scottish in the above, other than the bit about having some Scottishness in him. As do I, and it's a part of who I am - but it's not a defining characteristic of me and apparently him. All I can say is that I seem in a pretty similar position to him, and I'd be OK if the current lede was written about me, and I'd be a bit upset if I was described as either Scottish (with no qualification), or Scottish-born British. Like Ramsay we moved from my place of birth when I was very small and while it is obviously a significant biographical detail I don't regard it as so defining that it would need to be in the opening sentence of my Wiki article. I think in the current environment, the fact that Ramsay self-identifies as a Unionist is as close as we'll get to saying that he's British first and Scottish (or English) second.Le Deluge (talk) 16:26, 31 August 2016 (UTC)
- It's not particularly relevant what other people think but I happened to see this opinion poll in which a minority of Scots thought Ramsay was Scottish. I was just amused that this was something considered interesting enough to poll people on.Le Deluge (talk) 08:45, 16 September 2016 (UTC)

Proper Formal Title
Gordon Ramsay is a winner of the Order of the British Empire, as indicated in his bio, and, accordingly, should be referred to as his proper title of 'Sir'. Sir Patrick Stewart, OBE has his title included properly, which is why the lack for Ramsay confuses me. User:TheLearnedSoldier 08:21, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
- An OBE doesn't entitle you to the prefix "Sir". Stewart received the OBE in 2001 and was made a Knight Bachelor in 2010; he was only entitled to use "Sir" after the knighthood in 2010. So there's no confusion - Ramsay is not a knight, so he can't be called "Sir".Le Deluge (talk) 01:15, 11 November 2016 (UTC)

NeliMiteva, who according to the user page works for Gordon Ramsay Group, has suggested another image on my user talk page. Normally I would tend to be put off this kind of direct promotion but at least they are being honest about the COI. It is an opportunity to use a fairly high quality image that shows Ramsay as he is best known. Personally, I like the expression and overall quality in the current image, but I wanted to forward this suggestion to this talk page to give others the opportunity to review the images. —DIY Editor (talk) 06:24, 26 January 2017 (UTC)
- Suggesting while having a COI is not illegal. But I like to turn the suggestion in a request. Those posing pictures are fine, but a picture of a chef in action (really cooking!!) would be far better! The Banner talk 11:09, 26 January 2017 (UTC)
- You are correct and I think we should even be welcoming of representatives of celebrities who may have high quality professional photos to offer. —DIY Editor (talk) 06:07, 28 January 2017 (UTC)

I removed "Scotland-born British"
Scotland is part of Britain, so just putting British is fine. Pc Retro (talk) 13:57, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
- Yes, hide the fact that he is Scottish. It might be embarrassing for the English to know that their best chef is not one of them. The Banner talk 14:08, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
- Please, not again. See "Nationality" (2008), "Nationality in lead sentence(again)" (2009), "Scottish-Born English?" (2013), "Shouldn't be called Scottish" (2014/15), "'Scottish-born British' term" (2016), What is Scottish? (2016). ---Sluzzelin talk 20:39, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
- I am afraid that it will keep showing up till the day he can show his Scottish passport. The Banner talk 21:39, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
New Girl guest apperance
Add his guest apperance on FOX show New Girl Season 6 Episode 16 "Operation: Bobcat" Nexus 5 (talk) 11:56, 17 July 2017 (UTC)
- Is a single guest appearance in a show relevant? I doubt it. The Banner talk 12:24, 17 July 2017 (UTC)
- Well, I saw that there was already a "Guest appearances" subsection with similar entries so I didn't see any harm. Isn't this fairly typical for entertainment articles? Appearing on television is what Ramsay is notable for in general... —DIYeditor (talk) 13:39, 17 July 2017 (UTC)
- Sorry. Ramsay is notable for his cooking and Michelin stars. His TV-shows only came after he was awarded the Michelin stars. But a simple, to-the-point list of guest appearances can be added unless it gets overly long. The Banner talk 15:27, 17 July 2017 (UTC)
- You are correct, he is a notable chef and restaurateur, as well as published author. The television appearances at least on his own shows are quite notable as well though, and I would guess where most people know him from. —DIYeditor (talk) 16:43, 17 July 2017 (UTC)
