Well, we could, as is done in online games, create a little school for people to go through and learn the ropes before we let them into the "game" itself. Not sure how we would set that up, certainly very paternalistic, but constantly processing unblock requests, as I do, I can see that much of the trouble people get into is due to a lack of basic orientation.
I always thought this page:

...which leads people into this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Tutorial
...was and is an excellent introduction.
However, many (most?) people don't read the manual.
