General Excellence in Online Journalism, non-English sites
For the first time the Online Journalism Awards has created a non-English category. Run by the Online News Association, these are among the most prestigious of the Web-only awards — by journalists and for journalists. (I have a bit of a bias here). Entry fees range from $25 to $150.
Deadline: May 31.
Details: 3. (NEW) General Excellence in Online Journalism, non-English
This category honors a non-English language Web site from anywhere in the world that successfully fulfills its editorial mission, effectively serves its audience, maximizes the use of the Web’s characteristics and represents the highest journalistic standards. The sites will be judged on excellence of content, interactivity, rich media, design, navigation and community tools. Entries may consist of one main URL.
Two awards:
Small: 0-999,999
Large: Over 1 million
Note: Entrants must provide the following information in their entry remarks to qualify
* URLs to three examples of original online reporting in the last 12 months that showcase the quality of their online journalism. (A brief summary of the news articles or a URL to a translation would help.)
* Three examples of design and navigation innovation and an explanation of how that has helped users.
* Three examples of creative use of online technology in the last 12 months, ranging from new types of digital journalism, to multimedia, to user interactivity.
* A brief explanation of how they incorporate user-generated content and methods of reaching out to and including the audience in their site.
* URLs to any documentary evidence from professional organizations or peers that support the entry, for instance, awards, special funding, or praise from journalism professionals and online innovators.

There is a two-phased judging process. Screeners review all entries and then a panel of judges selects winners in each category. If you would like to be a screener, please let me know and if you have language skills beyond English, please let me know that as well. I hope you will please pass this note on to those in your countries who might be interested in entering.
