Hi GuillaumeTell, since you haven't edited for almost two years, I've taken the liberty of archiving a bunch of old newsletters and outdated notices to make your talk page a bit more manageable. You'll find them all at User talk:GuillaumeTell/Archive 8. Feel free to revert my handiwork, if you'd rather have them back on this page. I hope all is well with you. We miss you at the Opera Project. Best wishes, Voceditenore (talk) 14:58, 1 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• So sad that you silently stopped singing operas with us, - RIP. I took the liberty to archive newsletters and all until today in Archive 9. We will remember you and and your lasting contributions! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:30, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I will miss his collegial advice. It was GT who first encouraged me, in 2006, to write articles about Sidney Jones (composer) and Ivan Caryll. He was astonished that such famous and prolific composers had only stubs. This led me down the rabbit hole of Edwardian musical comedy, from which I did not emerge until I had added hundreds of new articles about composers, librettists, lyricists, actors and musicals, from 1890 to 1925. -- Ssilvers (talk) 21:38, 11 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I've just seen this and I add my own tribute. Andrew was a wise, witty and superbly well informed man, always willing to help other editors, and never making those of us not quite in his intellectual league feel inferior. I had the pleasure of lunching with him several times when he was in London, and of co-hosting him at an editathon at the Royal Opera House, where he created wonderful text astonishingly swiftly. A lovely man, whom I shall miss greatly. Tim riley talk 20:48, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
