The badges have been a part of the Degrassi Wikia since I joined, and to be honest it's what pushed me to start contributing. I saw the 5 day badge and I was determined to get it. So on, and so on. Now I'm extremely proud to be the #1 contributor. However, the badges have caused spamming. There's been quite a few members who just add pointless, non-existing categories. There was one recently who added 50+ categories to one page at a time trying to get badges. Those drive me crazy! Others clutter the articles with images. I do have a question about the badges/points. I received the 8,000 Lucky Edit badge at received my 100 points. However, I also received the Lucky 9,000 edit and Lucky 22,000 edit and didn't receive any points for those. Are points only awarded for the first Lucky Edit? I love the idea of customizing badges. I wish there was a way for me to do it for the Degrassi Wikia.
