It's been brought o my attention that this post may be a duplicate of: Platinum Badges
First of all, I am not asking SE to install platinum badges across the board.

1. Should the popular-notable-famous question criteria be adjusted?
2. Will all questions eventually become popular, notable and famous? Do we have a problem with that?

UPDATE
Many thanks to Shadow Wizard's tip which allowed me to discover that on EL&U there are 41 questions which have reached the 100K milestone that have earned between one and ten upvotes. Search on EL&U

And even on SE Meta I found the following 100k questions

1. How does accepting an answer work? 282k

2. Jon Skeet Facts 170k

3. Are answers that just contain links elsewhere really "good answers"? 139k

4. How do I format my code blocks? 119k

5. What is the XY problem? 114k

I am not suggesting that questions that reach 10,000 views should no longer be awarded a gold badge, but I do believe that a post that has reached a 100k visits is something a bit special and out of the ordinary. I don't know which form should this recognition take. I am hoping that the community can come up with some suggestions. What about a platinum badge?
