[edit]- RIP – DreamRimmer (talk) 08:04, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
- Requiescat in pace. Lectonar (talk) 09:00, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
- You were one of the first administrators whose work I admired, all the way back in 2008 when I first started editing seriously. Fare thee well. Dylan620 (he/him • talk • edits) 10:11, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
- Us Wikipedians will miss you. We hope that someone who is your successor does just as good a job as you did with the bot. NoobThreePointOh (talk) 12:07, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
- RIP – robertsky (talk) 13:35, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
- My condolences to your family; we'll miss you. <3 Legoktm (talk) 13:54, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
- Oh this is sad. Although low-intensity, James has been a consistent presence on Wikipedia for a very long time. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 15:22, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
- Very sad, indeed. When you turned in your mop, James, you said you had hoped to be back but unfortunately life took another turn. You will be missed. Liz Read! Talk! 18:13, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
- I hope you rest in peace James, my condolences to your family. —usernamekiran (talk) 22:46, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
- RIP, I didn't know him personally, but his AdminStatsBot was invaluable for my work on the former administrators page and of course HBC AIV helperbot5's worth is incalculable. I think it's remarkable that he kept his bots running for sixteen years, through all the software/hardware changes that happened during that time, including the changeover from the Toolserver.

- May you rest in peace James, My sincere condolences to friends and family. –Davey2010Talk 20:38, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
- My sincere condolences to all friends and family of James. starship.paint (RUN) 12:11, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
- Sad news. I didn't see James around too, too often, but he was one of the most amicable people I've had the pleasure of interacting with on Wikipedia. He'll be missed. Kurtis (talk) 05:38, 24 July 2024 (UTC)
Wikipedia Obituary
[edit]I've written a quik first draft of an obituary at the deceased Wikipedians page at Wikipedia:Deceased Wikipedians/2024#JamesR. Feel free to edit/add to it. Graham87 (talk) 03:52, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you! Do you think we could hide some of the archive box? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:26, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Gerda Arendt: It took quite a lot of fiddling to figure out how to do it ... but I've managed it! I also disabled archiving while I was here because it's not needed now. Graham87 (talk) 09:07, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for the fiddling! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:20, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
- No worries! I also took the liberty of linking earlier archives. Graham87 (talk) 09:29, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for the fiddling! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:20, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
