I wrote http://toolserver.org/~multichill/nowcommons.php a while ago,
less colorful, but should work on every wikipedia.

At the nl wikipedia i created a template a while back to mark images
moved from other wikipedia's, but not yet transfered to Commons. The
template makes the images end up in
http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Categorie:Wikipedia:Afbeelding_afkomstig_van_een_andere_wikipedia
This can be very useful to mark images and later transfer the source
images to Commons.
