Well, For me the goal is to collect media about the
area under a
commons license. I am not interested in teaching people to read,
because most of them dont. there is just too much text on commons for
people to read, they dont understand or have the patience. It is not
the commons suck, it is just at too high a level for the users that I
am dealing with. We have tried to get translators, it is just too much
for them.
I remember there was an Isrealis project of collecting old photos and
then upload them to Commons via local server. Maybe they can share
some code with you?
By the way - such a server side collecting photo software would be
usefull not only for WLM but also in many other cases - for example
during cooperation with GLAM Institutions.
Maybe you will find interesting a Vicunia uploader:

It is probably still too sophisticated - but it let collect photos and
add metadata off-line, save metadata as an xml file in a folder
together with pictures and then upload files later.
