Code of Conduct

What article on docs.github.com is affected?

Article on the site: https://docs.github.com/en/account-and-profile/setting-up-and-managing-your-github-profile/customizing-your-profile/personalizing-your-profile#displaying-badges-on-your-profile

Markdown permalink at time of writing: https://github.com/github/docs/blob/36a4641103ef482d8ec3e60db94718f22b87e223/content/account-and-profile/setting-up-and-managing-your-github-profile/customizing-your-profile/personalizing-your-profile.md

What part(s) of the article would you like to see updated?

There are various entries listed which appears under the "Highlights" section of a user's profile. The "Discussion answered" badge seems to have been replaced completely with the addition of the Galaxy Brain Achievement. A user in this discussion notes that support had confirmed for them that the badge has been removed in lieu of Galaxy Brain's addition. This is also evident by simply viewing the profiles of users who have had marked answers in discussions: Example 1 and Example 2.

The documentation should be modified to reflect this change. A simple removal of the badge and it's description. I could do a quick Pull Request, but I wanted to double check if this change is in the green and perhaps if this might've been left there intentionally.
