It's easy to get around all of the banning tecniques, but this would be hard for someone who is just a passerby vandal, as opposed to an advanced cracker (who wouldn't even bother with Wikipedia, for it is too easy). Plus, what if they didn't know it was a cookie blocking them? Another thing, by all means, I don't want to require the enabling of cookies for use of wikipedia. That would be too much of an invasion of privacy, even if it *could* prevent vandals with that tecnique.
