Re CL1358+62: I would have to question the included comment "It is located approximately 26 billion light years from Earth."
Basically, if the estimated age of the Universe is only ~14 billion years, light from an object 26 BLy distant would not have yet reached us, ie, could not have been detected.
By my understanding, the lensed object galaxy (CL1358+62)is only 13 BLy distant. From contents of my astronomy archives on the object: [~13 billion light-years from Earth, based on estimated age of the universe of ~14 billion years; its light is only reaching us now from a time when the universe was but 7% of its current age]

Details: http://hubblesite.org/newscenter/archive/releases/1997/25/ 'World's Most Powerful Telescopes Team Up With a Lens in Nature to Discover Farthest Galaxy in the Universe' (Data as of July 1997) In specific (from that article): "The results show the young galaxy is as far as 13 billion light-years from Earth, based on an estimated age for the universe of approximately 14 billion years."
I think imagery on those pages would be public domain, thus available for inclusion should the editors wish to include as part of the Wiki-article.
