FAQ & kontakt

Answers to common questions about ArtaQuest — how publishing, the reproducibility checklist, challenges, coins, sponsors, and donations work — and how to reach us.

Wat is 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.

How do I publish a work?

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.

Haw ik in akkount nedich?

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.

Kin ik meidwaan as ik ûnder 18 bin?

Leden fan 13 en âlder kinne registrearje mei tastimming fan âlders of fersoargers. Keapjen fan Arta-munten, as in oare betelling, fereasket dat de akkounthâlder 18 of âlder is, of in âlder of fersoarger om de transaksje te foltôgjen.

Hoe wurkje útdagings?

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.

Hoe gean ik mei in útdaging?

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.

Wêrom hearts ynstee fan op en del stimmen?

Want smaak hat gjin negatyf nedich. Jo hert wat jo leafhawwe - ien hert per lid per antwurd of wurk, nea jo eigen - en de tellen rangearje de buorden. D'r is neat om te stimmen: ynhâld dy't hannelet yn haat of eangst wurdt behannele troch ArtaMod, net troch pile-ons, en al it oare fertsjinnet te stean op 'e leafde dy't it fertsjinnet. Elk hert is iepenbier yn 'e Data Explorer.

Wat is it ferskil tusken munten en punten?

Twa ferskillende dingen. Arta Munten binne jild - gold-backed, spendable, cashable; jo winne se troch in take útdaging pool. Punten steane - in libbenslange telling fan wat jo hawwe bydroegen dat jo rang bepaalt (Quester to Legend). Jo fertsjinje punten troch te meitsjen (wurken publisearje), meidwaan (in punt foar elk antwurd dat jo pleatse), donearje (in punt per jûn munt), en frijwilligerswurk (oploste bydragen, oandielen, ferwizings). Munten útjaan ferleget jo punten nea.

Hoe kin ik donearje?

Gean nei de Donate side, kies of fier in bedrach, en fierder te kassa. Betelje mei Interac e-oerdracht as kaart; do silst sjen betelling ynstruksjes fuortendaliks. Wy befêstigje ûntfangst binnen 1-2 wurkdagen.

Wat is Arta Coin (₳)?

Arta Coin (₳) is de munt fan ArtaQuest. Elke munt is in oanspraak op ien milligram fan echt goud, en de Reserve-side publisearret de live-ferhâlding fan goud holden oan útjûne munten - sadat jo de stipe sels kinne kontrolearje ynstee fan ús wurd foar it te nimmen. In munt is yn elk lân itselde wurdich. Jo winne munten troch útdagingspools te nimmen, en jo kinne se keapje of útjaan op 'e live gouden taryf fan jo Wallet.

Wêrom is de donaasje yn CAD?

De stichting banken yn Kanada, dus kassa wurdt oanjûn yn Kanadeeske dollar. Kaartbetellingen konvertearje jo lokale munt automatysk; Interac is foar Kanadeeske bankrekken.

Wat kin ik dwaan mei Arta Coins?

Fûn of fier útdagings yn, donearje se oan it lidfûns (dat jo ek donorpunten fertsjinnet), of jild se út foar gewoan jild tsjin de live goudkoers fan jo Wallet. Elke munt is in oanspraak op ien milligram goud; de live backing ratio is op 'e Reserve side.

Kin ik krije in belesting ûntfangst?

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.

Kin ik myn donaasje werom krije?

Donaasjes binne yn it algemien net werombetelle (sjoch it werombetellebelied), útsein foar dûbele of net autorisearre betellingen. Munten slein foar in werombetelle donaasje wurde omkeard.

Wêr is in beurs foar?

Dus dy kosten beslute nea wa't meidocht. Troch it programma Sponsors earmerke donateurs Arta Coins oan in mienskip, en beurzen tekenje op dat fûns. Wêr't it hjoeddedei stiet: it beursformulier dekt noch altyd it pensjonearre kursusjild, gjin útdagingsoanmelding, dus it kin noch gjin útdagingsjild betelje - dat sizze wy leaver as jo nei in formulier stjoere dat net kin helpe. Elke munt yn it fûns is yntusken iepenbier yn 'e lieders.

Hokker bewiis fan ynkommen haw ik nedich foar in beurs?

Ien dokumint is genôch: in CRA Notice of Assessment, in oerheidsfoardielbrief (AISH, Alberta Works, Income Support, of lykweardich), in kredytwurdearringsrapport dat jo ynkommen klassifisearret as leech, of in oar middelsteste dokumint.

Is ArtaQuest in registrearre organisaasje?

Ja. ArtaQuest Foundation is in registrearre Kanadeeske non-profit. It wurket eksklusyf foar edukative doelen en dielt gjin winst út oan leden. De non-profit struktuer is opsetlik - it beskermet de ûnôfhinklikens fan it platfoarm tsjin it oanskaffen, monetarisearre of rêstich fan syn missy ôfstjoerd.

Wat is de posysje fan ArtaQuest oer AI?

In AI is oplaat om jo syn iennichste antwurd te jaan - om in wrâld fan mooglikheden yn ien te brekken. As ark is dat machtich. As ferfanging foar tinken, fersmellet it rêstich wat minsken leauwe dat mooglik is, en beleanne it akseptearjen fan it gemiddelde antwurd oer ien út te wurkjen. It baarnt ek in protte enerzjy. ArtaQuest waard boud as antwurd - net tsjin 'e technology, mar foar de minsklike fakulteit kin it net ferfange: de mooglikheid om foar josels te tinken, en om in fraach te ferbreedzjen dy't de masine is beheind.

Promovearret ArtaQuest in bepaalde ideology of wrâldbyld?

Nee, wy pleite gjin tradysje, denominaasje of politike posysje, en wy akseptearje gjin finansiering dy't ús nei ien lûke soe. Wy bringe jo de bêste fergese kennis dy't wy kinne fine, presintearje de sterkste earlike saak foar konkurrearjende posysjes, en lit jo jo eigen konklúzje berikke ynstee fan jo ien te jaan. Gjin eangst, gjin haatspraak, gjin propaganda.

Wêr komt de finansiering fan ArtaQuest wei?

Donaasjes. Yntsjinjen, kontrolearjen en publisearjen binne allegear fergees, en útdagingspools wurde noait oanrekke: 100% fan yntreejilden giet werom nei de winnende dielnimmers. Elke kado, elke munt en elke gouden figuer is yn 'e iepen lieders - sjoch de live Reserve en de Data Explorer.

Hat ArtaQuest woldiedige status foar belestingûntfangst?

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.
