It is a bit early for that question right now.
In the long run we plan to have metadata about Commons media file (current
state of the discussion is here:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wikidata_for_media_info ) - but
this is planned for 2014.
For now, the Creator template in Commons can not be replaced with Wikidata.
There is no way to integrate data from Wikidata in an arbitrary Commons
page (which is what you would need in order to replace the Creator
template). We have a Bug for ( this
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47930 ) and aim for this in
this fall / early winter to be completed.
My assumption would be to, for the long term, create the Creators as items
in Wikidata (if they do not exist) and add data to them. But this will not
yield any short-term visible results, which is frustrating. So you might
want to have a double strategy: add them to Wikidata and add them in the
creator namespace, just as you have done so far.
Does anyone have another opinion on this?
Sorry for not having better news right now,
Denny

hi,
we are currently experimenting to have, after zb zürich earlier the
year[1], a second museum from switzerland uploading full quality
images (i.e. tif format)[2]. i was wondering what is the most
"wikidata compatible" way of adding a creator information to an image
like this one:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Soleure_Aa_0012.tif
the painter winterlin is in the category, has a template including
personal information, just like the wikipedia article, and the
wikidata entry.
