Just an idea : badge for finishing a project #198

Open ViolaineDo opened 8 years ago

ViolaineDo commented 8 years ago

As said in the title, if it's doable, i was just thinking it could motivate people if you get a medal when you finish a project... it's more on the game / competition between each of the contributors of a project... who finishes the first?

can you provide some more details? does your suggestion have to do with tasks/squares or tasking manager projects? what are the parameters for judging when someone finishes?

Sorry for the late answer, i was on leave, indeed it was just at the stage of a global idea, to discuss. It would be a badge for someone finishing a TM project (not just a task), so doing the last task of a project. If we want that to be valuable, the whole project needs to be validated before giving the badge (or anyone can mark everything as complete without mapping anything). So it would correspond to the person who did the last task of a project and properly (validated). SO it would be latent badges, I'm really not sure it would be relevant, as first validation work is still on progress, and not automatic and it would happen sometimes (long) afterwards the contribution. I 'm sure it's not the priority at the moment, but if can brings some ideas.. just wanted to share!

I like the idea -- like, a square finishing badge, and if a group finishes a task, everybody gets a task finishing badge or something.
