MvM badges

Been working on gathering the color info from the special MvM badges, and thought a table listing all of them together could be a good idea to list on the wiki. Since the paint splatters for all of them are already on this page, and the badges are painted to get their unique colors, I thought putting the table on this page would be a good idea. I'm putting it together like the paint cans table, but displaying the badge and its title instead of a paint can and the paint name. Team colored badges would show both images of the can split across separate rows like how the colors are displayed in the table. I'm cool with putting it on a different page too, but I thought it might fit here and wanted to get some feedback first before I jumped right into putting it in.

The colour of each badge is in their file name. Feel free to add the colour in parenthesis in the gallery but a different table is not necessary.

Links in the 'Colors' section

On the Colors section, the Radigan Conagher Brown and Zepheniah's Greed colors have links to Radigan Conagher and Zepheniah Mann respectively. I don't feel like this is necessary, this should only be in the Trivia section.

I think the links could be shortened to just the relevant bit (Radigan Conagher Brown -> Radigan Conagher Brown).

I don't think that's needed either, most players with a considerable amount of time playing TF2 probably already know who Radigan Conagher and Zepheniah Mann is, most especially if they have read the comics. While of course not every one knows who they are, it would fit more in the Trivia section as that's where generally readers would go to look for intresting facts about something.

I don't think a trivia like 'Zepheniah's Greed is named after Zepheniah Mann' or 'Radigan Conagher Brown is named after Radigan Conagher', those are obvious (it's literally their names) and break the trivia style guide. You can argue that most players know what the Scattergun is, but we still link it on articles. The purpose of links is to inform, and if there's something that users can be poorly informed about it's TF2's lore as it all requires non-game interactions.
