What happens when you get five hundred total contributions on this site?

Answer 1

Answer

You get a WikiAnswers badge (Bronze contributor).

UpdateFor every contribution milestone you receive a new badge which is displayed on your profile. The more useful contributions you make to the site, the more respect you earn from the community.

As your contributions grow, some Supervisors may invite you to join programs such as Wiki Influential Teens or Special Project Assistants.

The contribution milestones are:

500 contributions - Bronze badge

5,000 contributions - Silver badge

25,000 contributions - Gold badge

100,000 contributions - Platinum badge

200,000 contributions - Double-platinum badge

500,000 contributions - Ruby badge

Contributors also earn an additional badge which is placed on their profile by a Supervisor for every 10,000 good contributions they make.
