thread_title: Grammar

message: It would be nice if the controversy section at least acknowledged the fact that a non-trivial number of people thought that the criticisms leveled against the original design were misguided, if not nuts. --Cmdroverbite 06:51, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The problem is that it can be difficult to document a "silent majority" for the purposes of WP:V.  If you have a credible source for such an opinion -- or maybe a quote from someone involved -- you are welcome to try to work it into the article. — Eoghanacht talk 18:17, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I removed statements from this section that did not meet the Wikipedia definition of originating from a reliable source, but that came from a self-published web page/blog.76.218.69.148 (talk)  —Preceding undated comment added 10:04, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  controversy section seems POV 

message: I was wondering who owned this land and what it was used for before the crash.  I always hear it described as a "field."  Does that mean it was being used for farming?  Are there any more details available about this "approximately 2200 acres, of which about 1200 will be privately held"?  Does that sentence in the article need to be marked "citation needed"?  Thanks. --Lkseitz 16:51, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Crescent direction.jpg

message: I removed some statements in the lead and final sections about Sept. 2011 as the date of completion (and dedication). Clearly this is a big undertaking that has loped way behind schedule, and it's not likely to be finished even within the next year it seems. If anyone has seen any recent statements from the people in charge about the timeline, with good sources, it would be nice to have it updated.Strausszek (talk) 21:34, 7 September 2011 (UTC)

thread_title: File:Flight93 Memorial.jpg Nominated for Deletion

message: One of the links, to the Rocky Mountain News, when accessed, just displays the message "Page cannot be crawled or displayed due to robots.txt. See (link) www.rockymountainnews.com robots.txt page. Learn more about (link) robots.txt." The first link just goes to a page with a few squiggles, and the second to the wikipediar article Robots exclusion standard. Which is a long article, but the bottom line seems to be that I can't access the link target. I have a fairly standard setup I guess, so I've marked this as a dead link, hope that's correct. Herostratus (talk) 06:24, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  What is this "robots.txt" entity? 

message: The article states:
Svonavec’s treasurer, Michael Svonavec, had told the family group he thought the land was "worth $50 million, but you can have it for $10 million".[5]
referencing the New York Times at http://www.nytimes.com/2008/07/28/washington/28memorial.html .  However, the New York Times article actually says:
Mr. White said, Svonavec’s treasurer, Michael Svonavec, Patrick’s brother, told the families group that he thought the land was “worth $50 million, but you can have it for $10 million.” Michael Svonavec said he never made the comment.
So, the reference quoted made it clear that this was hearsay, and that the person alleged to be quoted had denied it, but the Wikipedia article omits both of these points.  This seems rather POV.
I don't feel qualified to edit this article, but this part seems like it needs attention. 86.7.30.217 (talk) 02:54, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Misleading quotation? POV? 

message: In this image one can see an oddly-shaped yellow pond and a short yellow creek on the grounds of the Flight 93 Memorial.  Can anyone explain this? Thanks 174.24.62.59 (talk) 14:56, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: The area was extensively strip-mined and partly reclaimed.  It's leachate from the mine, characteristically acidic and red/yellow/brown, held in ponds to be treated. Acroterion (talk) 15:00, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Yellow liquid 

message: Seems like this page isn't being updated as much as it should. The memorial has been completed and will open tomorrow (http://www.nytimes.com/2015/09/09/us/a-long-road-to-a-place-of-peace-for-flight-93-families.html?smid=fb-nytimes).
