FAQ & kontakt
Answers to common questions about ArtaQuest — how publishing, the reproducibility checklist, challenges, coins, sponsors, and donations work — and how to reach us.
Hvad er ArtaQuest?
- A social feed of citable, reproducible work. Every submission — survey, dataset, model, article, 2D or 3D illustration, 2D or 3D animation, 2D or 3D game, or music — is a public Kaggle notebook that has been run. The author pastes the URL of the notebook's output page, picks which of its output files to publish, and an exhaustive reproducibility checklist runs against Kaggle's public API before the author publishes the work from their own inbox. Published files land in the Library, where any member can attach them to their posts. Reading everything is free, no account needed.
Hvordan udgiver jeg et værk?
- Paste a Kaggle notebook URL, pick the files to publish, read the checklist, request publication, then confirm from your inbox. That is the whole flow. The checklist's blocking checks all have to pass; then a single-use secret goes to your own registered email, and your click plus your device passkey signature is what publishes the work and mints its permanent DOI short link. Every step is free.
How is a work checked?
- It is checked, not judged — nothing here is scored, ranked or graded. A reproducibility checklist runs about twenty deterministic checks in four groups: can anyone open it, can anyone re-run it, did that run produce these files, how repeatable is the result. Every check names the exact evidence it read from Kaggle's public API. Blocking checks must all pass; warnings are shown loudly and never block. Because the Kaggle pages the checklist reads answer without a login, the whole checklist is a public assertion anyone can re-run and contradict.
Why must every work be a public Kaggle notebook?
- Because that is what makes it checkable by a stranger. Reproducible here means anyone can hit Copy & Edit then Run All on Kaggle, from public inputs, and get this — weaker than a byte-for-byte guarantee, stronger than taking our word for a run on our own machine. Kaggle runs the notebook and enforces the internet switch; we read and report what its record says. The Kaggle kernel is the provenance, and the DOI short link (artaquest.com/d/n<id>) is the citation of record, because a kernel is owner-editable and deletable and a DOI is not.
Har jeg brug for en konto?
- You can read, play and listen to everything without one — and re-run any work yourself on Kaggle. A free account is needed to post, heart, publish and enter challenges. Signing up takes under a minute and needs only an email address; there are no passwords, ever.
Kan jeg være med, hvis jeg er under 18?
- Medlemmer på 13 år og derover kan tilmelde sig med forældres eller værges samtykke. Køb af Arta Coins eller enhver anden betaling kræver, at kontoindehaveren er 18 år eller ældre, eller en forælder eller værge for at gennemføre transaktionen.
Hvordan fungerer udfordringer?
- A challenge is founded by a member: pick a kind, a sitewide topic and a full-moon deadline, set the entry fee, and open it with your own notebook — the founder pays in like everyone else. Every entrant's fee goes straight into the pool, and at the full moon the most-hearted entry takes the whole pool; an exact tie splits it evenly. The Foundation never takes a cut.
Hvordan deltager jeg i en udfordring?
- With your own work of the challenge's kind — a public Kaggle notebook that has cleared the checklist and that you have published from your own inbox. Pay the entry fee — all of it goes into the pool — one entry per member per challenge. At the deadline only the hearts decide.
Hvorfor hjerter i stedet for op og ned stemmer?
- For smag behøver ikke noget negativt. Du har det, du elsker - et hjerte pr. medlem pr. svar eller arbejde, aldrig dit eget - og tællerne rangerer bestyrelserne. Der er intet at nedstemme: Indhold, der handler med had eller frygt, håndteres af ArtaMod, ikke af pile-ons, og alt andet fortjener at stå på den kærlighed, det tjener. Hvert hjerte er offentligt i Data Explorer.
Hvad er forskellen mellem mønter og point?
- To forskellige ting. Arta-mønter er penge - guldstøttede, forbrugsdygtige, kontanter; du vinder dem ved at tage en udfordringspulje. Point er stående - en livstidsoptælling af, hvad du har bidraget med, der sætter din rang (Quester to Legend). Du optjener point ved at skabe (udgive værker), engagere (et point for hvert svar, du sender), donere (et point pr givet mønt) og frivilligt arbejde (løste bidrag, delinger, henvisninger). At bruge mønter sænker aldrig dine point.
Hvordan donerer jeg?
- Gå til Doner-siden, vælg eller indtast et beløb, og fortsæt til kassen. Betal med Interac e-overførsel eller kort; du vil se betalingsinstruktioner med det samme. Vi bekræfter modtagelsen inden for 1-2 hverdage.
Hvad er Arta Coin (₳)?
- Arta Coin (₳) is ArtaQuest's currency. Each coin is a claim on one milligram of real gold, and the Reserve page publishes the live ratio of gold held to coins issued — so you can check the backing yourself instead of taking our word for it. A coin is worth the same in every country. You win coins by taking challenge pools, and you can buy or cash them out at the live gold rate from your Wallet.
Hvorfor er donationen i CAD?
- Fonden banker i Canada, så kassen er denomineret i canadiske dollars. Kortbetalinger konverterer automatisk din lokale valuta; Interac er til canadiske bankkonti.
Hvad kan jeg gøre med Arta Coins?
- Found or enter challenges, donate them to the member fund (which also earns you donor points), or cash them out for ordinary money at the live gold rate from your Wallet. Every coin is a claim on one milligram of gold; the live backing ratio is on the Reserve page.
Kan jeg få en skattekvittering?
- Not an official one, and we would rather say so plainly than leave you to find out at tax time. ArtaQuest Foundation is a Canadian non-profit corporation, not a registered charity, and CRA does not permit a non-profit to issue official donation receipts — so a gift to us is not tax-deductible. Every donation does trigger an email confirmation you can keep as a record, and every cent of it appears in the Foundation’s published books, on the Finances page.
Kan jeg få min donation tilbage?
- Donationer kan generelt ikke refunderes (se refusionspolitikken), bortset fra duplikerede eller uautoriserede betalinger. Mønter præget til en refunderet donation tilbageføres.
Hvad er et stipendium til?
- So that cost never decides who takes part. Through the Sponsors programme, donors earmark Arta Coins to a community, and bursaries draw on that fund. Where it stands today: the bursary form still covers the retired course fee, not a challenge entry, so it cannot pay a challenge fee yet — we would rather say so than send you to a form that cannot help. Every coin in the fund is public in the ledgers meanwhile.
Hvilket indkomstbevis skal jeg bruge til et stipendium?
- Et dokument er nok: en CRA Notice of Assessment, et offentligt fordelsbrev (AISH, Alberta Works, Income Support eller tilsvarende), en kreditvurderingsrapport, der klassificerer din indkomst som lav, eller et andet indtægtstestet dokument.
Er ArtaQuest en registreret organisation?
- Ja. ArtaQuest Foundation er en registreret canadisk non-profit. Det fungerer udelukkende til uddannelsesformål og uddeler ingen overskud til medlemmerne. Den non-profit struktur er bevidst – den beskytter platformens uafhængighed mod at blive erhvervet, indtjent penge eller stille og roligt styret af dens mission.
Hvad er ArtaQuests holdning til AI?
- En AI er trænet til at give dig sit mest sandsynlige svar - at kollapse en verden af muligheder til én. Som et værktøj er det kraftfuldt. Som en erstatning for tænkning, indsnævrer det stille og roligt, hvad folk tror er muligt, og belønner det at acceptere det gennemsnitlige svar frem for at træne et. Det forbrænder også en hel del energi. ArtaQuest blev bygget som svar - ikke mod teknologien, men for det menneskelige fakultet kan den ikke erstatte: evnen til at tænke selv og udvide et spørgsmål, som maskinen har indsnævret.
Fremme ArtaQuest en bestemt ideologi eller verdenssyn?
- Nej. Vi går ikke ind for nogen tradition, trosretning eller politisk holdning, og vi accepterer ingen finansiering, der ville trække os hen imod en. Vi bringer dig den bedste gratis viden, vi kan finde, præsenterer den stærkeste ærlige sag for konkurrerende stillinger og lader dig nå frem til din egen konklusion i stedet for at give dig en. Ingen frygtindsprøjtning, ingen hadefulde ytringer, ingen propaganda.
Hvor kommer ArtaQuests finansiering fra?
- Donations. Submitting, checking and publishing are all free, and challenge pools are never touched: 100% of entry fees returns to the winning entrants. Every gift, every coin and every gold figure is in the open ledgers — see the live Reserve and the Data explorer.
Har ArtaQuest velgørende status for skattekvitteringer?
- No. We are incorporated as a Canadian non-profit and rely on the paragraph 149(1)(l) income-tax exemption; we have not obtained charitable registration from the Canada Revenue Agency, and until we do we cannot issue official donation receipts. If that ever changes, this page will say so first.
