Badges and Ranks

Registered by Curtis Hovey

This blueprint has been superseded. See the newer blueprint "Representing trusted project members who have access to private data, and can speak for the project" for updated plans.

This specification is about adding badges and ranks to messages to indicate the authority and experience of the author. Badges and ranks are complementary solutions to overlapping problems. Projects need to convey official messages to users. People need to convey their experience to users. Both pieces of information are needed by the user to determine the importance of the message. Badges and ranks provide a measure of trust in the author of the message.
