Illustration of articles
I personally feel that a good article needs some illustrations, so I often upload public domain or creative commons pictures to illustrate articles. These articles were ones I uploaded and put pictures on:
Some of the U.S. Presidents, and Robert A. Taft, Stephen Douglas, Ben Tillman, Wilmot Proviso, Articles of Confederation, Otto von Bismarck, Horace Greeley, World War II, Homefront, U.S., Albert Gallatin, food photography, television, Katharine McPhee, Charles Sumner, Florida, Virginia, Joe McCarthy
