Hello GitHub Team,

I am writing to inquire about my GitHub profile achievements. According to the GitHub Achievement documentation, the Pull Shark badge should be awarded when a user has 2 or more pull requests merged. However, despite having 7 pull requests successfully merged in public repositories (including contributions to well-known open-source projects and my own public repository), I have not yet received the Pull Shark achievement badge on my profile.

My GitHub profile: https://github.com/luozejian

Pull Shark Achievement Requirements (Reference)

Based on GitHub's official Achievement documentation, the Pull Shark tiers are as follows:

Tier	Requirement
Default (Base)	2 merged pull requests
Bronze	16 merged pull requests
Silver	128 merged pull requests
Gold	1024 merged pull requests

With 7 merged PRs in public repositories, I should have at minimum received the base Pull Shark achievement badge.

List of My Merged Pull Requests (Public Repositories Only)

Below is a list of all pull requests I have authored that have been successfully merged in public repositories. Private repository PRs have been intentionally excluded from this report.

Summary

• Total merged PRs in public repositories: 7
• Merged PRs in third-party open-source repos: 6 (apache/echarts-doc x2, Techiebutler/freeframe, ansvisor/ansvisor, bifrost-proxy/bifrost, deepcoldy/botmux)
• Merged PRs in my own public repo: 1 (luozejian/mock-video-generator)
• Current achievement status: No Pull Shark badge displayed on profile
• Expected: At minimum the base Pull Shark achievement (requires only 2 merged PRs)

I would appreciate it if someone from the GitHub team could investigate why the Pull Shark achievement has not been awarded to my account. Please let me know if there are any additional criteria I may be missing or if there are any other details required to resolve this.

Thank you for your time and assistance!

Best regards,

Hi @luozejian

7 merged PRs should qualify for Pull Shark default tier (requires 2). If badge missing:

1. Confirm you are PR author, not only co author
2. All merges into default branch of public repos
3. Check github.com/luozejian?tab=achievements full tab, not sidebar only
4. Wait 72 hours from most recent qualifying merge

List each PR URL when opening Support if still missing after 7 days. Include screenshot showing Author: luozejian on merge commit.

Sometimes achievements lag after burst of first merges. One more merged PR can trigger batch update.

Hi! We appreciate you reaching out to report this issue.

Our internal teams are investigating delays affecting when some users earn achievements and when those achievements appear on their profiles. In some cases, the delay has lasted several days, which is not expected.

We don't currently have a timeline to share on when this will be fixed however, to keep conversations all in one place and to ensure you receive timely updates, we'll be closing this post and recommend you subscribe to this discussion.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.
