Excellent post. A few thoughts:

Forestry: I agree it should be kept, for now. It's a reference for players on older versions, but more importantly (to me) it keeps it in the forefront whereby the likelihood of its return (which many players, including myself, support) is greater. At least, I hope. :)

Tutorials: I agree, Tutorials should have a place here, and they should be in a Tutorial name space. For some reason this is very controversial right now. I hope some consensus can be gained, either way.

Escalation: You say "Anonymous editors should be warned at least once on their talk page that their behaviour is abusive." You continue with "only after their abusive actions continue should we assume pure vandalism out of an editor and ban that person". I don't agree with that. Good Faith is reserved for edits that you disagree with, not edits that are vandalism. Edits such as replacing the content of an article with "PENISPENISPENIS" are not worthy of Good Faith, they are obvious vandalism. Why wait until they do it again? I would ban those individuals immediately. This is in keeping with Wikipedia's own definitions of Good Faith and Vandalism.
