# Welcome to the GGUF Model Community!

This is a place where users can easily find and access a large collection of quantized models in GGUF format. We create a space for exchanging and searching for models that meet any needs and requirements.

## How to Join

To join, you must have more than 80 quantized models in GGUF format. Once you meet this requirement, feel free to apply and become a part of our growing community.

## What We Offer

- A large collection of GGUF models for any purpose  
- A space for sharing, exchanging, and discovering models  
- A community of like-minded people working with GGUF format models  

## Adding Models to Category-Specific Collections

All community members have the right to contribute models from their accounts to the community's category-specific collections. A model can be added to a collection if it either:

1. Is the specified model itself (e.g., Llama-3.1-8B), or  
2. Is based on that model (e.g., Llama-3.1-Tulu-3-8B).  

Examples of category-specific collections include:  
- 🦙Llama  
- ✨Gemma  

These collections focus on specific models or model families.

## Creating General Collections

Members can also create **general collections**, which bring together different models under a broader theme. For example:  
- 💬Chat: Models optimized for conversational AI  
- 🛡️Guard: Models designed for identifying harmful or unsafe content  

Each collection must have an emoji at the beginning of its name, followed by the collection's title in the format `[Emoji][Name]`.  

You can explore existing collections for inspiration and reference on [this page](https://hf.co/collections/itlwas).  

We look forward to seeing you join and contribute to the community!
