Sad day
I heard today that Moriori has died. I never met him, but I have long thought of him as a friend. He will be sorely missed.- gadfium 04:03, 1 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Thanks for all your hard work. Rest in peace. My thoughts go to your friends and family.  Schwede 66  05:07, 1 June 2022 (UTC)


 * I am not sure if we've interacted before, but it is sad to see you go. Rest in peace old friend. —usernamekiran (talk) 05:34, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
 * RIP, I noticed your name around the place, especially around 2005/06. You were also responsible for the most amusing instance of account compromise that I know of. Graham 87 12:17, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Yesterday, I fixed something on the main page and my sentence had a word missing for 7 minutes. I felt quite bad. But I no longer feel bad after reading about the above account compromise!  Schwede 66  12:40, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
 * The person appearing in WP:STOCKS is appealing as serious funny mistakes, everyone has mistakes. Rest in peace. Thingofme (talk) 10:10, 3 June 2022 (UTC)

 * Thank you for your many years of dedication to the project. — Bilorv ( talk ) 22:28, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
 * I'd just like to say thank you to the person who notified us so quickly of his passing. Often editors and admins just fade away and we don't know what happened. I appreciate you letting us know of his death. We are grateful for all of his contributions to the project. Liz Read! Talk! 01:45, 10 June 2022 (UTC)

 * So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past. Lectonar (talk) 07:39, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
 * I have only just discovered this sad news. Moriori made his first logged-in edit in Oct 2003, two weeks before I made mine. He was a valued contributor, whose work I often noticed and appreciated, especially in the early years of the mid-noughties. Nurg (talk) 10:09, 22 July 2022 (UTC)

Your work and attitude, and that lasting image, will live. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:57, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
