This article page is for the Referata 'meta' wiki.

Referata – wiki databases — offered hosting of semantic wikis, allowing you to add, structure, and store data so that it could be managed, shared, browsed, and analyzed in as many ways as you chose.

Combined with the collaborative abilities of a wiki, a site hosted on Referata could serve as a true user-powered database, with a minimal amount of setup work or technical knowledge. Referata wikis could be public or private, open or closed. Public wikis could be set up and run at no charge, but had a limit of 100 MB file storage. There were three paid-for service levels; at 20, 50, and 80 US$ per month.[1]

As of November 2016, the Referata developers and other staff appear to have at least partially abandoned this 'home' meta wiki site. The feature requests page has dozens of requests that have seemingly been ignored, and the recent changes list is mostly full of new user account creations. It seems like the site has become just a dormant host for individual wikis.

The entire Referata wiki farm was hacked in 2019 and was never recovered. As a result, this main site and just about every other Referata wiki are no longer accessible. A few backups of the largest wikis reportedly do exist, but these are sparse.
