Improved to Good Article status by Unlimitedlead (talk). Nominated by Onegreatjoke (talk) at 05:49, 8 March 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Constantine (son of Theophilos); consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
- Thanks @Onegreatjoke: for nominating this. I will say, however, that the hook would benefit from losing the "Palace of Blachernae" part (for length), and briefly mentioning that Constantine was an infant while all of this occurred. Unlimitedlead (talk) 11:46, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
