Photo request It is requested that a picture or pictures of this person be included in this article to improve its quality.

Note: Wikipedia's non-free content use policy almost never permits the use of non-free images (such as promotional photos, press photos, screenshots, book covers and similar) to merely show what a living person looks like. Efforts should be made to take a free licensed photo during a public appearance, or obtaining a free content release of an existing photo instead.

[edit] Introduction/Picture

Should the word stocky be used in the introduction? I don't think whether Enda Bonner is stocky as any bearing to the rest of the article.

Also, IMHO, the picture part can be moved to the external link's section. Otherwise, it is too distracting to the reader (and again, has no bearing on the rest of the article). If you feel incline to include a picture in the article, then why don't you upload the picture? Most likely the picture qualifies as fair use (as part of election picture)?

Senator Enda Bonner: ... Packie Bonner - who is a cousin of mine ...
