Change Details

Currently Wikibase UI just called wbformatvalue of each badge items for getting labels of all available badges. To be more effective we can introduce a dedicated API for this. This may be a new parameter of wbavailablebadges.

This may be a new parameter of wbavailablebadges. Alternatively we can use wbgetentities to get labels of all badges, though this need two requests (wbavailablebadges then wbgetentities) instead of one, it is still much better than the status quo (26 requests: 13 wbparsevalue and 13 wbformatvalue).
