Talking Hands Award Application Information
Nominations: A web site author may nominate their own site or nominations may originate from the viewing public. In no case will we disclose the names or any other information concerning these nominations for the Talking Hands Award.
In rare cases we may quote from the fifty word of less citation for the recipient write up which is displayed in the honoree's laudation, but then only with written permission from the writer.
Declines: Each nominated web site will be sent three notifications that their creation has been nominated for the award and if there is no response after the third notification, those making the nomination will be notified of failure to respond, graciously of course, or if declined also notified in the same manner. Thereafter all information is permanently removed.
Failure to Qualify: Any web site which has not received the necessary score or receive unanimous consent of our judges will not be listed. However those sites which wish to improve their scoring will be sent a composite score sheet upon written request absent an evaluator or judges name or information. Score sheets with the applicants email address and URI are kept for a three month period then permanently removed.
