Just curious other than checking your profile is there any other way to find out if you've gotten a medal?
Sometimes people can be in a club when they realise that there's a little medal symbol next to their names on a contribution, but that's more luck than anything else.
No, not at the moment. The only place that tells you how many medals you've earned is on your profile page, and the best way to check which clubs you have which medals in is by doing one of the following:
-Sorting your clubs by "highest medal" (you can do this by clicking on your total number of medals in the top right of your profile) or
-Look at your clubs in "list" form (rather than mosaic) so that you can see all the names of your clubs, along with which medals you have earned for each one.
