Wikimedia pages paying tribute to deceased colleagues
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Welcome to Wikipedia:Deceased Wikipedians. This is a memorial listing of English-language Wikipedians who have died. (Deceased Wikipedians who contributed in other languages are documented on their respective language wikis.)
People in this list have changed English Wikipedia for the better in some way. While generally a few hundred edits is considered reason enough for their inclusion, special circumstances (example) can be taken into account, and how you feel about their efforts to make the world a better place through this project should be considered when placing them here to be remembered.
Please do not add people unless you can supply verifiable information that they have died. For details, please see these guidelines. If you have questions or comments, feel free to discuss in our talk page.
Rest in peace, deceased Wikipedians. We promise we will never forget you, nor your contributions.
