Hi all,
Through various other channels I learned the unfortunate news that Craig Franklin (Lankiveil) has recently passed away. He was a board member (2011-2015) and president (2013) at Wikimedia Australia, longtime English Wikipedian and admin, and until this month he was member of the Ombudsman Commission.
Craig was a lively participant in many of our meetings/conferences, and it was always a joy to see him enter a discussion.
Condoleances are being collected on his user talk page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Lankiveil
Best regards,
Lodewijk
This is deeply saddening. Craig was lively, funny and smart. I will miss him.

What! that is terrible. I fondly remember talking (& sometimes having friendly arguments) with Craig at various Wikimedia conferences and events over the years, and seeing him around the English Wikipedia as an editor & admin since way back (2004). A loss for his family and friends, and for our movement.
Thanks for passing on the news, & my condolences to all of his friends. - Phoebe
May Craig's soul rest in peace. Kayode Yussuf
