Dear colleagues, The English Wikipedia community received news that User:Brianboulton <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Brianboulton> passed. Quoting User:Schrocat <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:SchroCat>: "I have just received an email from Brian's daughter to say that he died peacefully on 9 December, following a long illness. Requiescat in pace. 106 FAs, 2 FLs, gawd knows how many source and prose reviews at FA, and countless numbers of editors helped, encouraged and improved over the years. A good friend to all who met him, and this place is a little less appealing now he won't be here anymore." Comments may be left on his talk page <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User talk:Brianboulton>.
