TI  - Analysis of Cultural Differences in Collaborative Innovation Networks: Wikipedia
AB  - This paper aims to observe the cultural differences in collaborative innovation networks by comparing the statistics that belong to different versions of Wikipedia websites in English, German, Japanese, Korean, Finnish and Turkish languages. For this purpose, dataprovided by Wikipedia is used. Relying on this data, the prevalence of Wikipedia was evaluated by examining contribution rates to Wikipedia dependent on population in different languages. In addition, the hierarchy of the social structure formed during article creation on Wikipedia was evaluated by looking at figures such as the number of active users and admins. Here, Wikipedia is used as a microscope to analyze the cultural structure and the transition process of different local cultures into informationtechnologies. This study is a step toward having a better understanding of different cultures by analyzing editors’ behavior based on the assumption that the editing behavior and co-operation models are influenced by their own cultures in the real world.
