Common questions

What does Ballot and Prize cover?

The bodies that vote, the ballots they run and the ceremonies where the results are read out, across Film, Television, Music, Books & ideas and Other fields. The season section follows the calendar those ceremonies sit in, from longlist to final night.

Are the winners listed here official?

They are as reported. Every result is credited to the organisation that announced it or the publication that covered it, with a link, and the announcing body is the authority if the two ever differ.

Do you predict who will win?

No. The site reports ballots, shortlists and rules changes as they are published, and it makes no forecasts and runs no odds or tipping of any kind. Where a prediction appears it belongs to the publication credited for it.

Why is no author named?

Nobody by name. Each is written with automated assistance from the reporting it summarises, and the source publication is credited where an author would be, as set out on Sources and methods.

Why does the site go quiet in some months?

Because it follows a calendar rather than a schedule. Ceremony season produces daily coverage, and the months between produce rules changes, eligibility disputes and little else.

How do I report a mistake?

The Corrections page asks for the article address and the specific claim at issue. Corrections are made on the article with a dated note at the foot, and substantive ones are listed on that page.
