"Parts of Michael Gove's levelling-up plan 'copied from Wikipedia'". The Independent. 3 February 2022. Retrieved 3 February 2022. One off-beat part of the report reads: "Constantinople was the capital of the Roman/Byzantine Empire (330-1204 and 1261-1453), the Latin Empire (1204-1261) and the Ottoman Empire (1453-1922)". The text is identical to the first line of the Wikipedia page for Constantinople, right down to formatting and punctuation.
The story of statues taken to Constantinople from Rome, Athens, Olympia is interesting. They stood then for many centuries in the Byzantine capital. Revery (talk) 08:24, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
