Badge gaming is performing actions on a wiki not strictly related to the wiki in an attempt to gain badges. This can include adding many irrelevant categories or images to articles or creating random articles with which to do so.

I'm not saying it's bad behavior because other wikis disallow it; rather, I'm saying it's badge gaming which other wikis with badges generally disallow.
