Dear all,
Some time ago someone, possibly on this list, posted an announcement about a researcher-friendly dataset covering all page protection log actions. Does anybody remember it? I understand that the logging table is also dumped as part of the regular database dumps, but being it a snapshot it is hard to reconstruct when a page gets in and out of protection. I am pretty sure I didn't dream it but since I cannot find it I thought it would worth checking with my fellow wiki researchers.
Cheers,

Hi Giovanni,
Are you thinking of the page protection dataset that Hill and Shaw did for the paper "Page Protection: Another Missing Dimension of Wikipedia Research"? If so, they've documented their data gathering and the dataset here: https://communitydata.science/wiki-protection/
Cheers, Morten

Hi Morten,
Thank you for sharing this! I was not aware of this project and it seems it does exactly what I need.
That said, I remember now that the dataset I was thinking about covered not just the protection log but also other log actions (like deletions, etc.).
Best,
