one of the admins created them (duh).

The 1337 badges were to commemorate the wiki getting to 1337 pages and also it happened to be April Fools'.. they were for an event of some sort I think..

The SeaCrane badges were... to honour SeaCrane 1, one of the original founders of the wiki. he was supposed to be the only one to give them out.
