The Recon-medal is awarded to Agents participating on the Niantic Wayfarer website by rating Portal submissions and edits.
Only those analyses whose ultimate fate matches the Agent's rating are counted . Also, the Agent's performance rating needs to be "Good" or "Great". Agreements gained when the Agent's rating is "Fair" or "Poor" do not count towards the medal.
The Medal description still mentions Operation Portal Recon, the previous name of Wayfarer before it was rewritten.
