also see this patch for "purge webrequest logs after 90 days", just added a bug

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/197081/

see comment from @Ottomata though -> "please wait on this, or sync up with analytics :)"

mw logs are now deleted after 90 days, not 180 anymore:

the webrequests log change in the last comment above is still open

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/197081/ is stalled because of the comments on Gerrit from Kevinator

"We need to keep some data for legal purposes. Also there also needs to be some assessments done to some of the subdirectories. Not all have been cleared for deletion:"

Resolving after a conversation with @MoritzMuehlenhoff and @ArielGlenn. This task is old enough to not be actionable in its current state. If you feel like this work still needs to happen please reach out to me.
