What you describe already goes on with Checkuser-l. For reasons that should be apparent this communication is confidential.

Exactly and the local community wasn't completely oblivious to Poetlisters conduct back on English wikipedia. He was carefully watched, tutored and polished to what he is now. His own effort was vital, no doubt, but he wasn't unguided.
What I am suggesting is not an Interwiki Police, I would be the first in line to oppose that. What I am suggesting is better communication between wikis. The arrogant tone between wikis should be abolished.
What I seek is better information sharing between wikis. I should not need to pay attention to individual noticeboards and block logs of every wiki. Intense cases of disruption should be noted in the same site.
For example checkuser info on indef blocked user should be shared among checkusers. If user 'A' is banned on wiki 'X' and then decides to register the account 'B' on the wiki 'Y' the local community should be prepared for it.

Indeed, just yesterday Poetlister was unblocked on en.wikipedia, at least partly based on her long history of good conduct at Wikiquote. One of the canonical ways to get unbanned is to go to another project and behave.

Can't wait for the politics of that one.
Community 1: Block him! UserABC was bad here! Community 2: He's a highly productive user here.
I'm sure we can all imagine how that'd end up.

Each individual wiki is independent yes, but we need a level of communication among wikis. Like between fr.wikipedia and
fr.wikibooks or
en.wiktionary and simple.wikipedia, same language sister project.
Ah! Something like interwiki extradition. :-)
