| '''Some obsolete notes from 2001 on the purpose and goal of the site.'''

I'm a little worn out now, as I've spent the last 12 hours straight on this site, so I'll try to keep this brief.

I think that the page [http://www.wikipedia.com/wiki/September_11,_2001_Terrorist_Attack September 11, 2001 Terrorist Attack] could be one of the great accomplishments of Wikipedia, if everyone gets involved. Already it's pretty remarkable, and it's only been four days. Many people built an amazing [[en:Timeline of the September 11, 2001 Terrorist Attacks|timeline]], while my focus has been on the [[en:Casualties of the September 11, 2001 Terrorist Attacks|casualties]] entry. But everyone can help in any way.
 
I've put in a lot of effort because I live in New York City, and this is the small way I can do something in honor of the thousands of people who died, including the 350 firefighters who died because they rushed in to save people, and in respect for the thousands of people working until they drop, exhausted, after literally days without sleep, digging through the rubbish, cutting through the twisted steel, and getting this city back on its feet--so well that all over the city people can go back to their cafes, be fashionable, and chat merrily with their friends, as if nothing had happened. And it's important that we do get back to normal--but also that we don't forget what happened. And the only way to prevent that is through the preservation and dissemination of knowledge, the reason for something like Wikipedia.
