LOL! It *is* a nice picture.

Talking of other things, I've been counting footer templates,
succession boxes and categories on articles like this one, and this
one seems to be some sort of record, or approaching it:

Gordon Brown:

11 succession boxes
11 footer templates
30 categories

The question I'm wondering is how many of the succession boxes, footer
templates and categories duplicate each other's functions? Chancellor
of the Exchequer and Prime Minister are two at least that have all
three (succession box, template and category). Question is, is that a
bug or a feature?

On Barack Obama, the succession boxes are inside a footer template!

Barack Obama:

8 succession boxes
16 footer templates
46 categories

I'm sure there is record somewhere for the most categories on an article.

That's out-of-date though.
