[edit] Current Wikipedia Topics of Interest

Somehow, a bunch of articles on Contemporary Iran and Persian history ended up on my watchlist. Since then, I have noticed that there is a surfeit of improperly used copyrighted images in this general area of interest.
The Jack Abramoff scandal is a veritable set cover problem in writing - this guy had his thumb in so many Washington pies at once, it's virtually impossible to determine how one Wikipedia article can describe the depth and breadth of his machinations. One has to wonder how he slept, to which the pat answer is: "Very well fed, and under silk sheets."
