Descriptions for custom badges not showing up on specific badge pages

Continuing the discussion from Descriptions for custom badges not showing up on the new badge pages:

This fixes the badges landing page, but not the specific page for each badge - see screenshot. I got the scribe badge today and was looking to find out what it was about, clicked the link and got no useful description. As in yesterday’s post, this affects only custom badges.

I dunno this is specific to custom badges, there is no way to edit the long descriptions in the UI. cc @sam

I fixed this per:

https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/fe51f84aa7225e984730d9354e535507180e00ce

This ensures stuff falls back to description if long description is absent. Allows admins to enter long descriptions and cleans up some of the internals.
