Referata was a wiki farm that offered hosting of semantic wikis; allowing you to add, structure, and store data so it can be managed, shared, browsed, and analysed in as many ways as you choose, within a wiki environment.
Referata was primarily by its founder Yaron Koren, and was hosted by WikiWorks.com. It provided free public wiki hosting (aka a 'wiki farm') using the MediaWiki wiki engine, along with the Semantic MediaWiki plugin and associated Semantic Wiki suite of extensions, and also utilises the OpenID universal login. Referata also offered commercial paid-for wiki hosting, with enhanced[clarify please] facilities. All Referata sites supported Google Analytics.
As of November 2016, the Referata developers and other staff appear to have at least partially abandoned the 'home' Referata (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 wiki farm was compromised by a malicious user in the spring of 2019, and all Referata sites went down. The service appeared to have been restored briefly, but soon went down again. As of August 2019, the vast majority of Referata sites now through a "Page Not Found" error message when attempting to visit. The main home wiki ("Referata Meta") will still connect intermittently but has no activity within the last 30 days and all attempts to register a new account fail.
