== Description ==
'''In Memoriam''', also known as '''September 11 Wiki''', was a [[WhatIsWiki|wiki site]] dedicated to {{tag|People|everyone}} who died in the {{Wp|September 11 attacks|terrorist attacks}} of {{Wp|September 11}}, {{Wp|2001}}, in the {{tag|United States of America}}.
A wiki dedicated to everyone who died in the terrorist attacks of 11th September, 2001.


The wiki was originally a fork of [[Wikipedia]].  It was created in response to a flurry of biographical pages for 9-11 victims that were deemed not to belong on Wikipedia.  The solution was to create a separate ''Wikipedia'' to cover the attacks [http://sep11.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page sep11.wikipedia.org] - a move unique in Wikipedia's history and a sign of its still-uncertain scope and direction in 2001.  When the creation of new memorial pages for 9-11 victims died down on the [[English Wikipedia]], activity on the September 11 Wikipedia mostly ceased as well.
This wiki was originally a {{tag|fork}} of specific content from the [[English Wikipedia]].  It was created in October {{tag|Founded in 2001|2001}} in response to a flurry of {{tag|Biography|biographical}} pages for 9-11 victims that were deemed not to belong on {{tag|Wikipedia}}.  The solution was to create a separate ''Wikipedia'' to cover the attacks: [[Archive.org:20030413072718/http://Sep11.Wikipedia.org/wiki/In_Memoriam|Sep11.Wikipedia.org]]; a move unique in Wikipedia's [[:Category:History|history]], and a sign of its still-uncertain scope and direction in 2001.  According to {{Wp|Wikipedia#Sister projects – Wikimedia|Wikipedia's article on itself}}, '''In Memoriam''' was the first [[Sister wiki|sister project]] ever created for Wikipedia.  When the creation of new memorial pages for 9-11 victims ceased on the [[English Wikipedia]], activity on the September 11 Wiki mostly ceased as well.


Concern eventually surfaced that a wiki dedicated to memorials for the 9-11 victims violated Wikimedia's mission of a collection of wikis with a neutral, worldwide point of view.  Discussion on whether to delete the wiki began in 2006.  On Sep 15 2006 it was made read-only.  Sometime in 2007 the content was moved to its new location, no longer hosted by Wikimedia.  The original sep11.wikipedia.org was finally closed on 22 June 2008.
