Metabase admins can designate collections as "official". These collections have a yellow badge to let people know that the items in the collection are the ones people should be looking at (or whatever "official" means to you). Questions and dashboards in official collections are also more likely to show up at the top of search results. Pairing Official badges with [verified items](./exploration.md#verified-items) can help everyone in your Metabase sort out which questions people can trust.
Metabase admins can designate collections as "official" with the following effects:
To add an official badge to a collection, an admin can visit the collection and click on the dot dot dot menu (**...**) and select **Make collection official**. Admins can also remove an official badge in the same menu. Admins can also mark a collection as official or not when they first create the collection.
