The rules of a number of awards or [[honour]]s require the nomination of candidates. The rules for who and how candidates are nominated vary with each award or honour, as do the processes of selecting from the candidates.

For some awards and honours, being nominated or shortlisted is itself considered an honour, as in the case of the [[Academy Awards]] and other similar events, and with events such as book and arts awards. In 2015 there were 273 candidates nominated for the [[Nobel Peace Prize]],<ref>{{cite web |url=http://nobelpeaceprize.org/en_GB/nomination_intro/nominations-2015/ |title=Nominations for the 2015 Nobel Peace Prize |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151009110541/http://nobelpeaceprize.org/en_GB/nomination_intro/nominations-2015/ |archive-date=9 October 2015 |date=3 March 2015 |work=[[Norwegian Nobel Institute]] |url-status=dead}}</ref> while 9000 are nominated for the more satirical [[Ig Nobel Prize]]s every year.<ref>[http://www.improbable.com/ig/miscellaneous/nominate.html Ig Nobel Nominations]</ref>
