Edits such as this have been re-adding original research to the article that is in violation of WP:BLP. Claims that Holyoake's research "failed to establish his claims that the Wallace Document was an early use of the Penny Black" would need strong, reliable secondary sources to be included.

thats why both BPA and Royal Philatelic Society Certificates clearly stating as genuine exist.
That from the Royal Society includes both full picture and description which clearly states " earliest known example of the Penny Black Postage Stamp" . 87.244.70.173 (talk) 08:01, 29 September 2025 (UTC)Reply
