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).
