Like many things in OSM, the reason that it isn't being done,
is because it has been tried and has failed. It looks like
that other people don't find the idea of "levels" and "badges"
interesting, so you shouldn't attempt it again.</div>

<p>Agreed, but the point was that there is 16 years of OSM-history
in which most stuff from the 5-minute (community) manager has been
tried in one way or the other, and there are reasons, which might
need to be re-evaluated if things have significantly changed, why
things are not being done, -not- that they simply hasn't been
tried. <br>
