Let's stop bitching at each other and start being more constructive, could we?
Commons is the way to go and it saves a lot of work on and distraction from other wiki's main goals.
How?
We don't have to worry about as much vandalism or what we're saying about people. Or border disputes.
Getting people inexperienced with image maintenance as admins on Commons is not a good idea. Requiring only a few hundred edits and a few months of activity is rather normal for admin bits on any Wikimedia wiki.
Commons is not normal. I'm an en and wikispecies admin. I've probably got at least as much experence dealing with images as all but your most experenced admins. And now I have to mess around makeing 200 edits.
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Image_classification_system should keep you busy then.
