Out of interest, how big is Wikipedia now? I mean the actual InnoDB
file on the master server, and all the images in the media folder -
not the ones that are released to the public.
Kind regards,

I think that would make sense, yes.
Archive.org could get API access
to push new metadata records to Commons, so that the files can be
referenced using standard syntax, but external URLs are used whenever
they are directly pointed to.
Put it in the non-existent Wikimedia roadmap. ;-)
