While an admirable idea, I can say that there are just some wikis, and some users, that this would not work on. I have seen many a block in my time where a user was given said block for things such as blanking pages, leaving obscene comments on another user's talk page, or just adding all around nonsensical spam to pages that have nothing to do with the content and thus ruining the integrity of the article, and the wiki as a whole for the time it remains. While yes, they might be different people than they were before, that doesn't necessarily mean they are. I personally believe that people who would resort to vandalism on a wiki that many people have worked hard on making the way it is deserve nothing less than a global block and/or infinite local block.
