A WikiBadge is a page that exists for the value of its BackLinks. It is an example of a WikiPractice.
Consider a collaborative writing task involving a group comprising both technical writers and word smiths. Where the technical writers were having problems with readability, they could call for help by inserting the tag EditMeWordSmith; and where the word smiths were unsure of the technical details, they could call for help by inserting the tag EditMeTechnicalExpert. A word smith wishing to find work could go to the EditMeWordSmith page and list the BackLinks to see all the pages containing that WikiBadge, and vice versa for the technical writers. Upon editing a page to polish the text the WikiBadge would be removed, so that the page no longer appeared in the BackLinks for that WikiBadge.
