Has anyone thought of selective banning?
Refuse anonymous edits from the banned IP, but allow signed-in edits.
We could supply a message like, "Sorry but due to abuse from IP i.j.k.l, you must sign in to contribute."
I think that's what Erik Moeller had in mind with point #2 of his message at 11:47:25 +0100 yesterday, and I think it's a good idea. If vandals want to be persistent we should at least make them go to the trouble of getting a fake hotmail address to sign up with ;-)
