It's useful - and engenders goodwill - to have things to give away at
events; especially button badges and stickers (geeks love stickers,
for their laptops). It's also useful to have a few, slightly more
valuable items, which can be given away in limited quantities, as spot
prizes.
I like the idea of badges/ stickers with phrases like "citation
needed", etc. and perhaps also "{{fact}}".
Please note, though, that my suggestion was for badges with the
QRpedia code for the article on QRpedia; not a generic code for the
one on QR codes in general.
