So a user on one of my wikis has been just adding a category saving and then adding another category and saving then undoing it just for badges. What should i say to him to get him to stp but not sound like a d*ck.

Ask him nicely about the problem ! And are you the admin there ?

If he continues doing so, even after multiply requests sent to him to stop, block him for a day.

Were this happening on one of the Wikis I manage, I'd approach it along the lines of...
But that's me. I have a very informal approach, which doesn't mean that I can't call people on their BS when necessary, but I have encountered instances where trying to assume the best of people has actually paid off, and that what someone was doing wasn't what people thought they were doing.
Hope this helps. Feel free to plagerise and re-word my suggestion to suit your own culture and mannerisms.
