Earning badges on the FSW is not prohibited. There are a ton of opportunities to do so. However, there is a difference between earning badges the right way, and badge farming, which is just making edits for the sake of earning them. Undoing edits you did repeatedly adds to your edit count, and if you're not making productive edits into articles, you are, in effect, badge farming. We are encouraging contributors to earn these badges fairly. It makes earning them more satisfying.
