A comprehensive analysis of the motivations of Wikipedians is conducted using the iterative methodology developed by Batya Friedman and Peter Kahn in\n Value Sensitive Design and Information Systems<\/jats:italic>\n and co-developed by Nissenbaum and Friedman in\n Bias in Computer Systems<\/jats:italic>\n . The Value Sensitive Design (VSD) approach consists of three stages: Empirical Investigation, Conceptual Investigation, and Technical Investigation. During the empirical phase, motivations of the contributors to Wikipedia are identified through analysis of data from two published surveys and a pilot survey conducted at New York University. The underlying values behind these motivations are then defined in the conceptual phase of the study. Finally, a technical investigation is conducted in order to determine how features of the Wiki technology support and facilitate these values.\n <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1145\/1215942.1215943","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,4,5]],"date-time":"2007-04-05T19:52:18Z","timestamp":1175802738000},"page":"1","update-policy":"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1145\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":104,"title":["Motivations of contributors to Wikipedia"],"prefix":"10.1145","volume":"36","author":[{"given":"Stacey","family":"Kuznetsov","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"New York University"}]}],"member":"320","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_1_1_1","unstructured":"Friedman B.
