'''Wikispaces – ''wikis for everyone''''', owned by [[Archive.org:20161122195348/http://www.Tangient.com/|Tangient LLC]], was a [[wiki farm]] founded early {{tag|Founded in 2005|2005}},[https://archive.is/PZAe2] which offered free [[wiki]] site hosting in various {{tag|Wiki Multilingual|languages}},<!--according to WikiMatrix--> and paid-for extra features.  Headquartered in {{tag|San Francisco}}, [[:Category:California|California]] (CA), United States of America, Wikispaces seemed to be aimed at small [[:Category:Company|companies]], [[:Category:Education|educational]] establishments,[https://archive.is/lnHpd] [[:Category:Special interest|special interest]] groups, as well as [[:Category:Personal|private individuals]].[https://archive.is/8pdT]  The [[WikiMatrix]] wiki engine comparison wiki site indicated Wikispaces had over 4&nbsp;million [[user]]s, and more than 1.5&nbsp;million wiki sites (so we need to get our skates on to add them all here on WikiIndex!!!).

Wikispaces [[WhatIsWiki|wiki sites]] were powered by its own {{tag|Custom engine|custom-built}} proprietary {{tag|wiki engine}} software, with some interesting features.  Wikispaces does <u>not</u> support [[CamelCase]], but does support all other conventional [[wikilink]] creation functions and [[:Category:Wiki syntax|syntax]].[https://archive.is/ZtDQl][https://archive.is/Y7ltM]  Free 'spaces' are 'supported' by {{tag|Google advertising}}, whereas paid-for spaces don't.  All Wikispaces supported the {{tag|OpenID}} log-in.

In early 2018, Wikispaces announced that the Wikispaces service would be {{tag|Goal abandoned|closing down}}; notice was given for users to download the content database of individual Wikispaces sites.  The first {{Cambridge-Dictionary|tranche}} ([[Archive.org:20101112085413/http://www.Wikispaces.com/content/for/teachers|Classroom]] and [[Archive.org:20101110005251/http://www.Wikispaces.com/content/wiki|Free]] wikis) were closed on 31 July 2018, whilst the [[Archive.org:20120210172520/http://www.Wikispaces.com/content/wiki-pricing|Plus and Super]] wikis remained in service until 30 September 2018.  The final tranche Wikispaces sites ([[Archive.org:20101113012925/http://www.Wikispaces.com/site/privatelabel|Private Label]] wikis) {{tag|Former wiki farm|were closed}} at the end of January 2019.  There is very little known of the fate of most formerly hosted Wikispaces sites, and scant evidence of any subsequent future incarnations of former Wikispaces survivors.
