Hi there, being in the train from Geneva to Paris I started to translate the page on Louise Merzeau in English.
Unfortunately I am going down now, and I am not finished… But it is available here : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louise_Merzeau https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louise_Merzeau
I have discovered the translation tool is deactivated in english, so in fact I had to translate twice. What a shame the system allows you to proceed in the first place…
Kind regards,
Natacha

Dear Édouard and our other colleagues at Wikimédia France,o
We are sorry to hear about the passing of Mrs. Louise Merzeau. While I did not have a chance to meet her, I understand she was an advocate for the Commons movement and a leading academic on digital identities and the relationship between technology and culture. I suspect we would have gotten along well.
Although she did not get to share her knowledge longer, we are grateful for the contributions she made. I have no doubt Wikimedia would have benefited greatly from her continued advocacy.
I recognize with everything that is going on, an event like this can quickly pass by without enough notice and tribute from all of us. However, I hope we can pause to recognize that, above all, we are people who have come together under a shared vision for a better future. The passion and bond that unites us are much stronger than any disagreements or challenges. Louise was a part of that vision, and we owe it to her to recognize her passing.
On behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation, please know that she is in our thoughts and that the community has our condolences.
Katherine
