Just nominate yourself, it saves the hassle of bothering others.

Well, women send themselves flowers and pretend they're from a hot man.

Men do the "chest-out gut-in" thing when chicks walk by.

So why not

what if the recognition calls for non self nominations?

I don't think so. Whether or not they follow through is still their choice.

I don't think it is wrong. Perhaps they aren't aware of the "something" or your desire to apply to the "something." Nominations are in many ways similar to a recommendation. If they don't think you are fit, they won't do it. But I'm sure you know best whether you are a fit for this "something" that you want. I say go ahead and ask... because even if they say "no", you'll still be back where you started if you weren't going to ask.
