microbadgeid

We would like to have a microbadgeid wiki tag, with a syntax like [microbadgeid=8241], which would display the microbadge image as a link to something like http://www.boardgamegeek.com/browse/microbadge/8241 (basically, just like when it's displayed beneath your avatar).

Right now, about the best handling for microbadges in game desciption / more info wiki pages is something like the following example, excerpted from Notre Dame:

Microbadges

Buy: http://files.boardgamegeek.com/images/microbadges/notredame3750.gif http://files.boardgamegeek.com/images/microbadges/notredame2.png http://files.boardgamegeek.com/images/microbadges/notredame3.jpg http://files.boardgamegeek.com/images/microbadges/notredame4.jpg http://files.boardgamegeek.com/images/microbadges/notredame.gif http://files.boardgamegeek.com/images/microbadges/notredamebellr.gif http://files.boardgamegeek.com/images/microbadges/notredameN.gif http://files.boardgamegeek.com/images/microbadges/mb_NotreDame.gif http://files.boardgamegeek.com/images/microbadges/mb_NotreDame2.gif

The section heading is a link to the microbadges wiki page, which is congruent with online play, awards, and such, so that part seems good. The buy link points to one of the microbadges' buy page, but since all the related ones are shown there, too, that works out decently. It's a little inelegant to have to click Buy, then click again on http://files.boardgamegeek.com/images/microbadges/notredame4.jpg to get the one you want, but it works. What's most wrong about this technique, though, is quite perspicuous if you look at the wiki text constructing this page. That tiny little microbadges Buy line comprises ten fully-qualified URLs: One to the purchase page, nine to the various microbadge images.
