I found this blog from the Badge post, and I say DEFINITELY NO!!! to achievements in-game. Heck, I say NO!!! to anything before the servers are more-less 24/7, not offline most of the time and with minimal queue wait.

But on the wiki: If I make an unnecessary edit to get a badge, it will almost never be "against" the truth; possibly just a comma to a period, or a deleted or retyped word. But I will often search for a new change, and edit it if possible. And that's what the Wiki wants, and virtual badges are really a minimal loss to her (they're worth about 50 kB. Lifechanging)
