I totally agree, that this was one of the ideas
this Wikimania that I
appreciated the most. I would like to suggest a page on the wiki as well,
perhaps 2019:Mourning corner, where maybe we could add the names, perhaps
photos of the place and also a have place for users to leave a comment.
Warm regards,

I agree about the Mourning Corner. This was one of the more peaceful and
reflective experiences of the conference, and I was deeply moved by it.
While I do not believe I knew any of the people mentioned by name, seeing
we are part of a community that extends past our time in this place is a
fitting symbol of how our work holds impact beyond our direct edits.

Dear Cornelius,
I've missed the opportunity to react on this initiative until now.
I would like to express my gratitude for your idea remembering our
community members who passed away. I like the idea and I liked how it was
implemented. Thank you for that!
(I took pictures about the "Mourning corner", and I will upload them on
Commons later.)
Best wishes,
Samat

Dear Wikimedians,
We are a strong, large, and diverse communities that is constantly
growing. Nevertheless, over the years some of us pass away and leave us.
Wikimania – as our global gathering – is an opportunity to honour them and
remember them.
For that reason, as this year's Wikimania, I have create a "Mourning
corner" where you can take your time and mourn those that have passed away.
The corner is outside directly left of the main entrance of the Aula Magna
building. It is a bench close to a tree, the tree is decorated with white
origami cranes.
On the Wikimania map, the bench is marked as "H" (also called *Sirleaf
Bench*). I've uploaded a map indicating it

If you have any questions regarding the Mourning corner, please let me
know.
Best regards
Cornelius
