A memorial template
Here's how it would work

When someone who knows an AVID user has sadly passed away, we will add a memorial template to said user's page

The memorial template will lock the user's page, archive their contributions, and make it impossible for someone to log in to someone's account with the message "This page serves as an archive memorial" with possibly a cross Icon.

We would have someone go through heavy security to show that they know the person who has passed. CharlieFiddlesticks (talk) 18:46, 26 October 2022 (UTC)


 * I don't know if this is necessarily a good or bad idea. What do the others think? PM pinter (talk) 18:50, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * It's not really necessary in my opinion. --DisneyInternationalFan (talk) 13:58, 28 October 2022 (UTC)
 * I agree with DisneyInternationalFan, also it's way too complicated to set up IMO  Logohub   (talk)


 * Per above, and first and foremost, where would be the verifiable info that someone has died? Are there any rules for that? Next time, please define your RfC better. Second, Stewards already lock those accounts, see Deceased Mirahezians on Meta. Blad (talk) 20:09, 28 October 2022 (UTC)
 * For the first one, see this as an example. Blad (talk) 21:27, 28 October 2022 (UTC)
