I have my fingers crossed that Quarry can solve this but I need some help to write a query.
Bonus queries:
1) In that date range, how many links did these editors add using partner websites on *all Wikipedias* (any language)
2) What is the baseline change in all external links on English Wikipedia in that date range
3) What is the baseline change in all external links on *all Wikipedias* since July 18th 2014
