Very sorry to hear about their passing. I've been involved with handling the 'administrative side' for a few Wikimedians from the Dutch community we lost last year, and the people that handle the en-Wikipedia page saw my edits and reached out to me and asked if I could write a small in memorial about two of them who also were internationally active: the team is quite pro-active in this. The in memorials were published in the English Signpost. Also, since a few years Jimmy mentions the people we lost as a movement in his speech on Wikimania (after an email on wikimedia-l, and maybe other places, to share the usernames of the people we lost in the past year) and we even had a small memorial site at Wikimania 2019. Very nicely done, under a tree, in the grass field next to the main building.
I guess every community needs to find it's own way in this, the en-wp page is imho a good point to start if you would like to create a page for your lost ones. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Deceased_Wikipedians Ciell _______________________________________________ Gendergap mailing list -- gendergap@lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe send an email to gendergap-le...@lists.wikimedia.org To manage your subscription preferences, including unsubscribing, please visit: %(web_page_url)slistinfo%(cgiext)s/%(_internal_name)s
