Wikipedia Advanced, aka, Advanc.io
I found this service when I searched wikipedia for WikiWand...humm, no, that's not it...how did I find it? I found the reference in a discussion, on a talk page, that contained very little detail, essentially all it contained was a query: "Does anyone know anything about this; how you seen this?"
