At the Dragon Quest Wiki, I'm trying to streamline pages in the MediaWiki namespace that aren't used any longer. In the list there, I've noticed several MediaWiki:Achievements-badge-name pages whose only content is text messages. I was told by a kind SOAP volunteer that most of those are related to the achievement board and I shouldn't delete them. However, I've checked the Dragon Quest Wiki Achievement Board and there is no similar text there to that of those pages. Moreover, there is nothing in the Customize badges page that indicates those texts are even used for achievement custom messages.
I consulted the main administrator of the wiki and he told me that those are legacy achievement badges, things that get plastered on the side of user pages when they're viewed. So, he told me that we should consider if these features are used by the wiki users or not. The problem is that, I can't find how are they supposed to be displayed and they don't seem to be used in the first place.
To the best of my knowledge, those custom messages can't be used by anyone. And even if I wanted, I can't edit them because the system says that only Fandom Staff, Fandom Utilities, Fandom Helpers, Spam Obliteration and Prevention, and Wiki Specialists can do so. All those pages were created around February 2014, way before I even joined the wiki.
So, what are those MediaWiki:Achievements-badge-name pages for and what should I do with them if they have no functionality and I can't edit them even as an administrator? Are they still useful under the modern Fandom standards?
