Question

Are there any badges for Contributions over 4000 per month?

You have been very busy - a HUGE thank you for all those contributions.

4000 is an incredible achievement Sally. How can one do that with only 24 hours in a day?

Answer 1

The contribution badges levels are set at 100 and 1000. Over the years there have been many G2G posts asking for badges for less than 100 contributions, Badges for Contributions for amounts between 100 and 1000 (with 250 and 500 being popular choices) and also for Badges for greater than 1000 (Usually starting over 2000 for the choices).

One thing that has changed in the last year or two is that the Monthly Contributions are now recorded when the badges are awarded. For instance I can see that last month you did 1839 contributions.

A 2000 contributions badge would make sense

No.      .

Answer 3

Personally, this has much to do with the individual's priorities pertaining to WikiTree's method of reward system as it pertains to real work in genealogy. While I think most people use the honor system pretty well, some do not. You can spend an hour a day really involved in a difficult profile and gain a few contributions. Example would be a working on a single profile and adding one census record after another and saving each time. Then going to the bio and over-saving each minute (even though WT saves a draft). So, no I do not think that contributions necessarily equal hours spent. To summarize, I think most everyone has good intentions, but we should exercise good judgement with what is regarded as progress.
