When anyone's edits, anon or otherwise, are repeatedly causing problems, for whatever reason, and the solution is communication rather than an outright block, I leave them a Message Wall message, and block them for a short time with the message "Please reply to the message on your Message Wall".

The block reason is displayed for them when they try to edit.

If they reply, I remove the block, if they wait until the block expires, I block them again for longer, with the same message.

This doesn't happen often, but it's an effective way to get someone's attention.
