I suggest get more people who like dealing with images to come to Commons and help out there then. Commons' backlogs are HUGE, so every little help would be appreciated. I never upload free stuff to Wikipedia anymore, always to Commons. Why limit it to one project when others could make good use of it too?

local uploads were simply disabled, and people would use the free media resource that is Commons.
Other WPs have tried that, and the immediate reaction is for commons to be hit with large numbers of non-free uploads, often deliberately mislabeled in the hope of getting by commons admins. There is no quick fix.
