I have a GitHub Achievement/Badge/Flair/whatever they call it for supposedly having contributed to this and I haven't the faintest clue what I did.

If you click on the icon it should tell you.

Basically any contribution to a repository which got archived gets you the nod. Likewise for the Mars rover one.

Hmmm possibly, seems odd that all mentions would be struck out but I can't say.

Maybe try messaging github support to ask?
