Those pages were created on www.wikipedia.com as part of Wikipedia.

sep11.wikipedia.org was created long after the fact to archive the
various September 11 experience- or memorial-type pages from English
Wikipedia before they finally got deleted there, as a lot of people felt
it was inappropriate or disrespectful to just delete them permanently
without saving them (which a lot of other people wanted to do and had
started actively trying to do).
