Description
While reviewing the Profile Badges handbook page, I noticed what appears to be outdated or incomplete documentation.
References:
https://make.wordpress.org/meta/handbook/tutorials-guides/profile-badges/
https://profiles.wordpress.org/associations/
https://profiles.wordpress.org/dd32/
The handbook currently documents the following WP Credits badges:
- Credits Participant
- Credits Graduate
However, the Associations page currently contains the following groups:
- Credits Mentor
- Campus Connect Participant
- Credits Graduate
Issue 1: Missing Credits Mentor badge documentation
The Associations page includes a "Credits Mentor" group, and the badge is visible on contributor profiles. However, I could not find any documentation for the Credits Mentor badge on the Profile Badges handbook page.
Could the handbook be updated to document this badge, including its purpose and awarding criteria?
Issue 2: Inconsistent naming between Credits Participant and Campus Connect Participant
The handbook documents a "Credits Participant" badge, while the Associations page lists a "Campus Connect Participant" group.
It is unclear whether:
- Campus Connect Participant and Credits Participant refer to the same badge, or They are separate badges with different purposes.
- If they refer to the same badge, the documentation may benefit from clarification to avoid confusion. If they are different badges, the handbook may be missing documentation for the Campus Connect Participant badge.
Expected Outcome
- Add documentation for the Credits Mentor badge.
- Clarify the relationship (if any) between Credits Participant and Campus Connect Participant.
- Ensure the Profile Badges handbook accurately reflects all currently available Credits and Campus Connect-related profile badges.
Screenshots attached for reference.
