Continuing the discussion from [What is the most awesome plugin for Discourse, that does not yet exist?](https://meta.discourse.org/t/what-is-the-most-awesome-plugin-for-discourse-that-does-not-yet-exist/31):

I would like to see a _nomination_ plugin for [badges](https://meta.discourse.org/t/what-are-badges/32540), which could easily be extended to encompass Trust Level 3/4 nominations as well.

The nominations system could piggyback the [Flags](https://meta.discourse.org/t/what-are-flags-and-how-do-they-work/32783) system, except of course if a user racks up a bunch of nominations, that’s A Good Thing. And the nomination button would live somewhere like the profile pop-up rather than in the flags menu.

The “smart” aspect of it would be that the system would show a pop-up suggesting maybe you’d want to nominate ThisPerson, based on certain triggers:

- You’ve liked 5 posts of the same person.
- You’ve favorited 3 posts of the same person.
- You’ve replied to the person 10 times.
- You’re tracking 10 of that person’s topics.
