Some challenges have a Questions page where you can ask the people running the challenge about it, for example what’s in scope. You only see the page if the challenge’s managers have turned it on.

The challenge’s managers are notified of your question. Once they’ve answered it, they can publish it with its answer under All questions, where everyone taking part can read it, and may send everyone a notification about it. Other people taking part never see who asked it.

Some challenges stop taking questions after a deadline, shown at the top of the page. If there’s no Ask a new question button, the challenge only lists answers to common questions.
