Are badges for Wikivoyage planned?
We have four categories of articles by quality (in English): Outline; Usable; Guide; Star. Outline is just a usual article, and others are advanced quality. Would it be easy to include these three types?
We started with featured and good article because we were very sure those would be ok with the community. We can easily add more like the ones you suggested. Question is how do we want to get a yay or nay on adding more? I think it would be easiest if we have a place on Wikidata where people can suggest new badges and if there is consensus we add them. What do you think?
Cheers Lydia
Generally, this is perfectly fine with me. Specifically with Wikivoyage, I can notify all active users via Meta:Wikivoyage/Lounge and possibly also in the projects. I guess the projects are anyway free to use or not use badges provided by Wikidata, though of course it does not make sense to add badges nobody is going to use.
