This achievement was proposed in the past, but has been rejected, because it doesn't fit the achievement format, and better methods to perform the same purpose exist (user page galleries, categories, subpages, etc.). Please read the discussion page for more details.

As per the page proposed achievements: If an achievement has strong opposition and the reasons for opposition are not resolved through discussion, then the proposed achievements category is replaced with the rejected achievements category, the reason explained succinctly on the page, and the page otherwise marked to make sure it isn't confused with an achievements page.


From the discussion on Talk:Achievements, I think this would be a neat way for geohashers to show off cool things they came across at the hashpoint.

To win this ribbon, the geohasher must find something that they think is really cool right at the hash point (not on the way there or back). Proof would be a photo and a description of what it is and why you think it's so cool.

The reason this is a ribbon and not a category is because collecting ribbons is fun, and properly categorizing pages is work.
