Hi Takashi,
as previously written, I collected names of Wikipedians/Wikimedians who have passed away since last Wikimania (August 2018).
Best regards Cornelius

*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 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Wikimania_2019_map_with_mourning_corner.png .[1]
If you have any questions regarding the Mourning corner, please let me know.
Best regards Cornelius
