Gangadhar was a super-active, dedicated English Wikipedian. He was also a mentor to several other Wikipedians. He will be missed. It may interest some of you to know he published an autobiography last year, titled "Choice in Chaos: A Wikipedian's Autobiography"[1]. (I haven't read it myself yet.)

I am sad to know this news about User:Bhadani's demise. I knew him as a very wise person with an open mind. That he chose to write his autobiography as a Wikipedian shows how much he valued the movement. My heartfelt condolences to his family.

Thank you for this information. I did some research on Gangadhar and learned that he made over 200,000 edits to English Wikipedia. An interview of him was published here: https://webtour.wordpress.com/2007/06/20/interview-with-mrgangadhar-bhadani… People who wish to do so may leave notes on his talk page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Bhadani Pine ( https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Pine ) <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:CatherineMunro/Bright_Places> On Thu, Feb 8, 2018 at 5:56 PM, Md.
