This was and interwiki issue because crosswiki CU action was needed (including 
CU action at tr.wp by steward because of limited amount of time and long CU 
procedure at tr.wp).

BTW, Turkic languages are generally mutually understandable; especially 
Turkish and Azerbaijani. And projects in Turkic languages projects are good 
example for possible crosswiki block by default: a person which showed 
disruptive behavior at one of those projects will be disruptive on all other 
from that language group.

I would also like to see some wikis to implement long term blocks decided by 
en.wp ArbCom (maybe by other ArbComs, too; but I am introduced only in en.wp 
ArbCom work). While en.wp ArbCom decisions related to desysoping or operative 
decisions for some set of articles or similar may be questionable -- I don't 
have any doubt about their decisions about long term blocks. And it would 
make dealing with projects disruption easier.
