The Revert Risk machine learning models only support the main (article) namespace on Wikipedia. Currently, when filtering for high revert risk edits using the Recent Changes filter, some edits to non-main namespaces are displayed:
Description

Event Timeline
This will presumably impact the 'Recent activity' personal dashboard module - unless we do additional filtering - so we should probably prioritise this for our MVP.
