We can't block his IP-range, if understand it he's editing from 203.xxx and 141.xxx. That's 1/128th of the entire internet (approximately)! Anyway, we really shouldn't permablock any IPs. As for dealing with this user, what else can we do? I mean, he is in essence banned for ever (I doubt he'd give up for an entire year, just to come back and be a nice, productive member of the wikipedia community). What can we do except to revert and block his socks?

The guy has already driven some people off Wikipedia, and used off-Wikipedia sites to libel Wikipedians. Now he has turned some pages into battle grounds. Who knows what he will do next. We have a serious problem. He is probably the most persistent vandal Wikipedia has ever had to face. We need to develop a policy to deal with him before he ups the ante and causes further chaos. Simply restarting his one year ban every time and reverting his edits, the recommendations of the arbcom, are not working.
I'm sure someone thought of this already, but how about blocking his IP range?
