Partial blocks have been deployed on all projects for a while now. We want to see how often people use the "Partial block" option on all projects. How many page(s) are people blocked from? Which namespace(s) are people blocked from?

Data timeframe: since the launch of partial blocks ~ 2020-07-31

Schema used: wmf_raw.mediawiki_logging

Pages Blocked per Submission

edit

By the end of July 2020, people are blocked from total 6395 pages (unique 3729 pages) on all projects. Majority of partial blocks only blocked people from 1 page per submission. It seems that the limit of 10 pages per submission is OK for now.
