thanks, but I get the thumbnail image https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b9/Steve_Jobs_Headshot_2010-CROP.jpg/50px-Steve_Jobs_Headshot_2010-CROP.jpg as opposed to the bigger image on the Steve Jobs wikipedia page. Please let me know if there is a way to get the bigger image.

Hi,
What is the best way to get the main image of a wiki page? For example, I would like to retrieve
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b9/Steve_Jobs_Headshot... for the Steve Jobs wiki page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Jobs .
thanks
