Circa 14 November 2012, RationalWikiWiki was taken {{tag|Inactive|down}}. The owner, Punky, made a decision not to release bulk database dumps of the content or to allow exports, but he did allow a select few users to retrieve limited amounts of content that they had contributed. Virtually all of RWW's content, except for mainspace, had been exported on 28 September 2012 and was imported to RationalWikiWikiWiki.

RationalWikiWiki was a small Wiki that commented on RationalWiki. It was part of the ScribbleWiki Wiki farm but moved before things broke down there, and is now hosted on the same server as RationalWiki.

There is now a satire of RationalWikiWiki called RationalWikiWikiWiki. RationalWikiWikiWikisWiki reports on the goings on there. There have also been serious attempts to create a RationalWikiWikiWiki to mock and criticize RationalWiki and/or RationalWikiWiki.

Circa 14 November 2012, RationalWikiWiki was taken down. As reason for his decision, Punky stated, "after months of struggling to justify coinciding RationalWiki's mission with RationalWikiWiki's mission, I decided the two sites are incapatable with each other. As a Trustee of this site, I put the goals of this site first and foremost over the goals of my hobby site",[1] and "There is a chance that RWW will come back in some form, but the persistent drama fest that it was needed to die".[2]
