Perhaps we need to enable one of the JavaScript "Warn if no edit summary" things (I wrote a great one which can nag you up to 3 times) for anons... something like "As an anonymous user, you are required to provide a reason for your changes. Please enter it in the text box below:"...
Perhaps this could be combined with a coarse edit analyser of some sort. For example, if there is a large reduction in the article length, then the user gets nagged for an edit summary. If the page is blanked, then the user could be given a warning such as: "I see you're blanking the page. Would you like some advice on that?".

Apologies, not quite sure where my reply transitioned from serious to jest; take your pick ;-)
