Oddly enough, it is Bauder who puts his finger on what is wrong with it.

I have a feeling that thinking of "better ways to treat them" may be
quite difficult. Aggressive edit warring drives people away, but often
the people being driven away have point of view agendas of their own,
they are just not knowledgeable enough about Wikipedia techniques to get
away with it
. Right there I think there might be some progress
made...cutting some slack for new editors who engage in naive point of
view editing. From my experience, I doubt the other side of that
equation, griefing experienced editors who aggressively bully is very
practical.

"...deterred from continuing by bullies, rules-lawyers and general fightyness"?

I hear they're going to ban fightyness, along with boys, at the 4 Girlz Clubhouse, which meets every Thursday after school, in the treehouse in Jessica Murphy's back yard.
