One of the best responses to some of the hyperbole out there about the closing, failure, end of WP is the figure of how many articles are actually locked down in any way, however, this is a difficult figure to authoritatively find/claim. There's Main and Featured [1] of course, about 11 protected articles [2], and then 785 semi-protected [3].
So are those the right numbers? If so can we claim about .0026% of pages are protected from editing by "anyone" and .00004% of pages are protected from Wikipedians (i.e., you've signed up for an account and haven't done anything stupid for a few days.) How many pages (BPL + ?) are likely to fall under Flagged Protection?
