Hello,
I think a column was removed from the page DDL but I'm not sure if it was
intentional because I didn't see any postings and the online documentation
still refers to it. Can someone confirm the column has been
dropped/removed? I don't want to make changes on my end if it was done by
mistake.
The column is page_restrictions
<https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Page_table#page_restrictions>
I see the note about it being empty but when I download one of the latest
files and review the DDL, it's no longer in the table definition -- Link to
file I downloaded for yowiki-latest-page.sql.gz
<https://dumps.wikimedia.your.org/yowiki/latest/yowiki-latest-page.sql.gz>
I downloaded an earlier version from
https://dumps.wikimedia.your.org/yowiki/20220520/ and compared them -- the
DDL sections for yowiki-20220520-page.sql.gz
<https://dumps.wikimedia.your.org/yowiki/20220520/yowiki-20220520-page.sql.gz>
vs yowiki-20220601-page.sql.gz
<https://dumps.wikimedia.your.org/yowiki/20220601/yowiki-20220601-page.sql.gz>
is
in the screenshot below, with page_restrictions highlighted on the left
(MAY file).
