Just a thought, but maybe he's using something like TOR? Are the IP
addresses completely unrelated or more or less in the same subnet? If he
 just redialed his line, i figure they would.

A thing we thought of as possibility to defend those, would be to allow
tor-edits just through some captchas. So we wouldn't have to shut out
tor-users completely, but had some control over spammers (assumed he
really is using tor).

But that's just something we came up for the wikipedia-vs-tor problem.
