On November 9 2009, the Bulgarian Wikipedia was awarded the special prize for overall contribution to Bulgarian web space by the jury of the competition "BG Site". This recognition comes in the year of the competition's tenth anniversary, and less than a month before Bulgarian Wikipedia's sixth anniversary on December 6 2009.
The prize was accepted on behalf of the Wikipedian community by Spiritia and SilentShout. It consists of a diploma and a statuette, created by the sculptor Ivo Arnaudov. This year, 16 prizes were awarded: 12 in the competition categories, 1 by Microsoft Bulgaria and 3 special awards by the jury. Along with the Bulgarian Wikipedia, a special prize for contribution to Bulgarian web space was awarded to Mr. Bogomil Shopov, a Bulgarian proponent of digital rights and free or open source software.
The founder of the "BG Site" competition, Mrs. Justine Toms, kindly agreed to answer to several questions for the Wikipedia Signpost.
