The badges have always been a wiki feature but recently Wetty decided to enable them. It's just a fun little thing for users to try out and get rewarded for their edits. By no means does this mean that you are allowed to spam-edit your articles though, we've already had a user do that and you can guarantee that it has not made any of us happy.
