The problem with badges for editing is that it rewards simple volume. Reputation (based on voting for individual edits) would reward quality. I think it might also discourage pointless edits that people often make just to get a badge. Anyway, thanks a lot for volunteering your time to edit posts even without incentive! :)

I'm only reluctantly against it (but then again, I'd be someone getting rep/badges and not having to deal with complaints), and this is more stating my view on the matter as a whole than suggesting a course of action.
