Proposal

EmilyHReturns is proposing the following:

I know we've had this discussion a few times in the past and the community voted oppose each time, but since it's been quite a while since we last had this discussion, I might as well bring it up again: I think badges should be removed. All I see them doing is promoting competition and reminding you of how much life you don't have in the case of X Days Contributing badges. They are also used for blatant policy violations like edit farming, which happens all too often among inexperienced users. That's why I believe they should be disabled.  EmilyHReturns ^{(M•C•B•E)}  14:11, June 25, 2020 (UTC)
