A badge to reward answering in less popular tags

New Badge: Promoting less popular Tags

New bronze badge for "reviewing"

Originally I thought a bronze makes sense here. But in retrospect I do not. Getting full access to review is now a hard enough task, you need Strunk & White and it helps lots if you have enough rep …

Add an incentive for approving/rejecting edits

My concern here is that if we introduce a badge people will be more likely to vote and thus make hasty incorrect decisions. As it stands a suggested edit queue is constantly empty ... on average an …

Can we have a "mind-reading" badge
