For my project, we will need to sql queries on
current wikipedia data

I already have a Gerrit account. Can I get SSH access for running such
queries?
It sounds like the redacted labs databases would nicely fit your use
case. The easiest way to get access there is to apply for Tool Labs [1].
To get access, please file a request through
https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:FormEdit/Tools_Access_Request
(Many parts around the WMF are currently getting migrated to
phabricator.wikimedia.org, so if someone knows a phabricator procedure
for that please chime in!)
Once you've got Tool Labs [1] access you can ssh to
tools-login.wmflabs.org
and running
sql enwiki
on that host connects you to labsdb's enwiki database and you can run
your queries there (similar for other wikis).
Have fun,
Christian
