Moved to mainspace by Vladimir.copic (talk). Self-nominated at 00:35, 28 June 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Peter Read (historian); consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

New enough. Long enough. QPQ done. No close paraphrasing issues, copyright violations or plagiarism. Interesting enough hook, backed up by the cited source. Well-cited throughout. NPOV maintained. Good to go. Edwardx (talk) 13:07, 29 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
