WikiLeaks requests global nominations for the "Most Wanted Leaks
of 2009"-the concealed documents or recordings most sought after
by a country's journalists, activists, historians, lawyers,
police, or human rights investigators.
Prizes will be award to the winner for each country.
Nominations can be anonymous, or if necessary, confidential.
WikiLeaks will seek to obtain the leading candidates through the
legal system, and its network of journalists, intelligence
sources, volunteers and readers. If you email us
(wl-editor@sunshinepress.org) we will alert you when the record
has been obtained. Think of your nomination as an global Freedom
of Information Act request with no exemptions.
Winners for each country will receive a cash prize upto 1000 EUR,
depending on how many countries submit.
Be sure to ask your "offline" contacts for their nomination also;
we seek nominations that reflect every government, political group,
industry and oligarch.
Documents or other materials added nominated must:
* Be likely to have political, diplomatic, ethical or historical impact.
* Be known to exist or have existed.
* Be plausibly obtainable to a well motivated insider, outsider or
intelligence agent. For instance the entire collection of documents
held by the Chinese Ministry of Public Security is not plausibly
obtainable, but a specific document or collection of documents may be.
* Be described in enough detail so that a court, dissident insider or
visiting outsider not already familiar with the material or its
subject matter may be able to quickly locate it, and will be motivated
to do so.
* Should, where possible, list all organizations, locations and
computer systems suspected of holding the material or having
information leading to it.
If public nomination would cause the document to further concealed, the
nomination may be made priately.
