In order to gain the What's Up Doc hat, do I need to post a new contribution on Documentation for which I gain rep, or is it sufficient to gain rep from my existing posts/edits on Documentation?

I'm pretty sure that any rep gained from Documentation during Winter Bash gets you the badge.

Update: now confirmed, because I earned the hat by sitting around and waiting for upvotes.

  • I agree. If you would have to contribute new material to the docs, it would say so.

Well, I can confirm now that you don't have to contribute new material to earn the hat.

I just got +1 rep from an old contribution to documentation and immediately got the hat!
