'''In Memoriam''', also known as '''September 11 Wiki''', was a [[wiki]] dedicated to {{tag|People|everyone}} who died in the {{ | '''In Memoriam''', also known as '''September 11 Wiki''', was a [[wiki]] 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}}. | ||
This wiki was originally a {{tag|fork}} of specific content from the [[English Wikipedia]]. It was created in October {{tag|FoundedIn2001|2001}} in response to a flurry of {{tag|Biographies|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 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 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 [[:Category:Wikimedia Foundation|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.

Discussion on whether to delete the wiki began in 2006. On 15 September 2006, it was made {{tag|ReadOnly|read-only}}. Sometime in 2007, the content was moved to its new location, www.Sep11memories.org, no longer hosted by Wikimedia. The original Sep11.Wikipedia.org was finally {{tag|GoalAbandoned|closed}} on 22 June 2008. | ||
