I think this is typically something that can be decided locally - but it is a good idea to exchange experiences! 

In the Netherlands, as far as I know (but we have active volunteers who always do more work than I know!) we dont have a process of checking every image. We assume good faith like we do with every image description in commons. However, we could perhaps do a run on the templates with a bot by the end of the contest to check them against the database to see if they exist. I am no fan of all fancy javascripts on commons because they make everything so much more complicated - but do what works best for you!

We use a tool linked from our WLM ID template:
http://www.wikilovesmonuments.org.pt/tools/verify/?wlm_id=6563987

This will tell us what we need, and what we can add to the photo, since
we're looking at it. You can compare the uploaded photo with photos from
the authorities and see if they match.
