I don't know if there has been a solution to the lack of sysops in the Persian wikipedia while I was hiding from the hurricane, but if that's a problem I recommend just making a few people sysops on a temporary emergency basis and then let the usual methods be used to ratify.
Well, I made one other person a systop, we reverted the attacker's edits many times and blocked random IPs he used for the standard 24 hour period, and the attacker seems to have stopped for almost a day now.
What is still very weird, is that he used IP addresses from many different places, from Thailand to the United States. My question is: how could he?
