Result Link Order
In each search result card, links are displayed in this order:
- Paper
- Appendix
- Artifact links from scraped sources (for example, Zenodo or GitHub)
- Artifact links discovered by ArtiFinder
When multiple artifact links are present, scraped links are shown before ArtiFinder links.
Note on #unavailable: Availability is determined by automated URL checks that run as part of the monthly pipeline. A URL marked as unavailable may be temporarily down, rate-limited, or require authentication. The hover tooltip on each flagged artifact shows when the check was last performed.
