I have never liked having badges on wiki's. They encourage bad editors to come along and simply spam edits just to get badges. I am fully supporting removing badges, as they're -- in my opinion -- a pointless side distraction that only aids bad editing. We have lots of stubs on the wiki and many editors, but we still only seem to harbour minor editing and no major expansion of content is actually done: why is that?

@Ned: I don't edit for badges dude, so I don't know why you have mentioned me in your post.
