Gratuitous Photos on Pages of Clerks for Individual Seats
[edit]I stumbled into List of law clerks of the Supreme Court of the United States (Seat 1), and was nonplused to find a photo there of but one of the many clerks past and present who have held the position. This seemed a bit self-serving.
I then checked the pages for clerks of the other seats, and found them to be inconsistent: photos of the present justice, a former justice, miscellaneous others who have been clerks for the seat, and none at all. This mildly offends my sense of order, and is made worse by the fact that the photos are used for mouseover previews.
Since my interest in this area is accidental, I am averse to straightening it out on my own. Perhaps someone with an interest and/or history in the area might undertake it. The obvious choices are (a) the current or final justice holding the seat, or (b) no photos at all.

- @GreenEyewash: Top of that pile, List of law clerks of the Supreme Court of the United States (Chief Justice), offers a gratuitous photo, to be sure. I have a new judge page half-written that I can't seem to finish, but will look through these possible photo ops once I do. Often nonplussed, Lindenfall (talk) 01:18, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
Background on the photos can be found in Archives 1 and 2 from 2018. As you can see from the archive, they were meant to be rotated among all clerks with photos, and not static. Feel free to change them around regularly.38.117.232.138 (talk) 14:51, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
