There's was a poll at

oppose per-article blocking (84% support and 10% are neutral). The last vote
was cast over a month ago, so I think we can accept the results are being
pretty conclusive. At the very least, this should be put into trial use as
soon as the code is working.

The perfect application for this is admins doing 3RR blocks. That way
the 3RR will really be an electric fence, keeping editors away from
the 'dangerous' articles but letting them graze on the rest of the
wiki.
Trial use should start with these sorts of blocks, once the code is turned on.
