For the wiki engine software that originally powered WikiWikiWeb, see: Wiki Base.

For the free wiki farm of Wikibase wiki sites provided by Wikimedia Deutschland, see: category: Wikibase Cloud.
This Wikibase article is
referring to a site which seems
not to be, or include, a wiki.
However, it still refers to, or is
pertinent to the subject of wikis.

Wikibase is a collection of software applications and libraries for creating, managing, and sharing data; and specifically, structured data. In essence, this concept means that all information entered onto Wikibase is 'machine-readable', effectively creating a database of information, which can be accessed universally, and crucially, is open data. A MediaWiki extension, created and hosted by Wikimedia Deutschland (WMDE) in 2012, Wikibase is an open source project.[1] Wikibase software was developed for, and is used extensively by Wikimedia Wikidata. Other wiki sites and projects using Wikibase include Europeana - Eagle Project, FactGrid, Rhizome ArtBase, DroidWiki, and Uncyclomedia UnData.

Non-wiki projects using Wikibase include the Ger­man Na­tion­al Li­brary (de: Deutsche Nationalbibliothek),[1] Enslaved: Peoples of the Historical Slave Trade,[2] TIB – Leibniz Information Centre for Science and Technology and University Library (de: TIB – Leibniz-Informationszentrum Technik und Naturwissenschaften und Universitätsbibliothek),[3] Black Bibliography Project[4]
