Currently each badge description page only contains information on:
- The requirements to earn the badge
- Who earned it and when they earned it
I would like to see this information added to those pages:
- What behaviors will help you earn the badge (a somewhat extended description rather than simply how many points)
- Rationale behind why a badge is awarded, including why those behaviors are being encouraged
This would save trips to MSO, and round out completeness and authority of the information. It would help encourage the type of behavior these badges exist to promote.
This is similar to the Make Each Badge Page a Wiki feature request, but I want to place an emphasis on the particular content rather than the way that content gets created or maintained.
To me this seems similar in intent to the individual privilege description pages.
