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
