Are experience-sharing oriented questions welcome?

Question

As this kind of question could appear, I'm asking to know how do we handle them.

• Are experience-sharing oriented questions welcome on our site?
  (i.e. "How did you handle your veg*n transition with your relatives?", "Was avoiding meat difficult at the beginning?", etc.)

In my humble opinion, I think those questions could be too broad and opinion-based but could also provide useful information to the OP who can pick ideas from answers to apply it to its own situation.

What are your thoughts?

Answer 1

Yes, some of them are welcome.

However, let's use common sense to single out those can be answered in a way helpful to other people.

Let's close questions of this type that...

• ...are only helpful to the OP and noone else.
• ...are unclear e.g. because they don't relate to a common experience many vegetarians share.
• ...invite too many completely different answers.

Let's keep questions of this type that...

• ...refer to situations that many vegetarians might find themselves in.

Good examples for such questions:

• How can I communicate ideas about vegetarianism or veganism to others without appearing like I am imposing it on them?
