NPOV

It seems this article is biased against the memorial. Phrases like "not even a flag" as well as the list of things people do not like about the memorial seem to be presented in a skewed manner.

title

the memorial is actually called the "World Trade Center Site Memorial" not the "World Trade Center Memorial". Change the title asap Savidan 21:33, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

No. There was an name change and it is now formally the "World Trade Center Memorial". The old web site with the old name used by the LMDC has been replaced with this World Trade Center Memorial Foundation. patsw 21:38, 15 December 2005 (UTC) I added a redirect page for the old name. patsw 21:38, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

Jesus, why make the thing so depressing?

How's this going to help people heal? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Craigboy (talk • contribs) 20:05, 5 May 2007 (UTC).

The goal of an encyclopedia is to collect information. We need not and should not aim to "help people heal." Wood Thrush (talk) 04:22, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:Refabs.jpg

File:Refabs.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

The lead

Shouldn't "The National September 11 Memorial & Museum" be the very first words in this article? Someone needs to reformat the lead. I Help, When I Can.[12] 02:29, 11 September 2011 (UTC)

Lead Image

It could just be shadows/picture quality, or I could just be wrong, but the lead image for this article looks sort of like a CGI rendering of what the memorial is planned to look like. Should some indication of that be given, assuming it isn't a real picture? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.31.157.180 (talk) 16:22, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
