That's awesome if accurate. Do you have an updated link or a link to another part of DL.com showing this update? This is what DL.com says on the "How to get Medallion Status" page:
"On Award Travel tickets, MQDs will be calculated based on miles redeemed for the flight divided by 100 on Delta-marketed flights only."

Since partner operated flights book as a partner-marketed flights on award travel, that effectively means you only get MQDs on DL-metal flights from what I can discern.
