The accepted answer is not an acceptable solution. This needs to be addressed more aggresively.

Proposed solution:

Okay I know this isn't perfect but maybe it'll give someone else an idea.

How about simply not allowing users to post questions that include a link to a specified set of code-hosting sites (JSFiddle, IDEOne, etc.) and do not include any code?

Updated per comments below:

In addition, we should tell users why they can't ask a question that isn't meeting our quality standards. We could display a message and link to a useful meta Q&A or an item in the FAQ.
