IMO Wikipedia could do the same as many boards do: purge accounts after a time of inactivity. I would go for 1year old accounts which have not done any edits, these shouldn't be a problem. I would also kill accounts with no edits which are blocked infinite, they are for no use anyway.
Some of these may have made edits that were deleted and that may subsequently need to be restored, so accounts that have made deleted edits should probably be preserved. Unfortunately I expect that'll include most of them.
