Evidence

I am sure beyond any possible doubt that User:Marco Pagot, who appeared yesterday is GG.

• Special:Contributions/Marco_Pagot So far, User:Marco Pagot has only edited Birthplace of Marco Polo, an article created by GG [1]. He has also entered immediately into confrontational posting with GG's old foes User:Zenanarh [2][3] and User:DIREKTOR [4] as well as posting at the 3RR noticeboard [5] and WikiProject Italy [6] about them. Use of hostile edit summaries ("Can you count?"; "The deleter has been warned in his talk page". [7]) is also characteristically GG.
• If it helps, GG's last known IP address (a bit stale, I know) was Special:Contributions/84.220.68.146

Comments

• As well as I know him it was deja vu - completely the same behaviour: speedy edit warring, threats, characteristical authoritative communication style, 3RR obsession, keeping away from the talk page, return to the place of his last "sin" - Birthplace of Marco Polo and typical grammatical errors like un discussed.

Conclusions

• Marco Pagot's edits contain giveaway Giove-isms. I think this can be safely closed as confirmed. – Steel 20:46, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
