Have a look at my profile - you'll see a 10,000 contributions badge - thats because I've amassed more than fifty thousand contributions (a mixture of answers, edits, category changes etc). I also have a Supervisor's badge - because I was asked if I would like to supervise the snakes category (which I spent most of my time in when I first started here). I've also recently aquired a Community Outreach Wikiguide badge - I was asked if I would like to join the Community program.
