To become an MVP, shall I need to contribute on particular area?

Copper Contributor
I have few queries :

1) I have been actively involved in MSDN and Technet Forums. I have a query here. Suppose, I'm helping the community under ". NET" Category. Again under this we have 3 more subcategories : dotnetcore, dorltnet framework and dotnet runtime core. So each of these have leaderboards?

2) If I move top by contributing on the leaderboard in any of the platform, is someone has to nominate or Microsoft will give me MVP?

3) Is contribution to one domain suffice for MVP?


Kindly help me on the same. Thanks for your time!
