Proper Citation: MetaBase (RRID:SCR_001762)

Description: User-contributed list of biological databases available on the internet. Currently there are 1,801 entries, each describing a different database. The databases are described in a semi-structured way by using templates and entries can carry various user comments and annotations. Entries can be searched, listed or browsed by category. The site uses the same MediaWiki technology that powers Wikipedia, The Mediawiki system allows users to participate on many different levels, ranging from authors and editors to curators and designers. MetaBase aims to be a flexible, user-driven (user-created) resource for the biological database community. The main focuses of MetaBase are: * As a basic requirement, MB contains a list of databases, URLs and descriptions of the most commonly used biological databases currently available on the internet. * The system should be flexible, allowing users to contribute, update and maintain the data in different ways. * In the future we aim to generate more communication between the database developer and user communities.
