I'm thinking the Insert Media option in VE: there, we are giving the editor
the option to upload Media to the article which in reality means uploading
Media to Commons if I'm not missing something. The workflow is very smooth,
and the Wikipedia editor does not need to know about Commons to follow the
flow.

That is comparing it with wrong examples that are

On Wikipedia we have the guideline that articles an categories should be
added to Wikidata, that originates back to the phase that only manual
interwikis existed.
And we have already received complaints why users do not get a message
after they created a category/article to add it to Wikidata.
Further I propose this only for (logged in) users, and perhaps further
settings are possible.
At the moment the largest workload is coming from articles that are not
added to Wikidata. Some users produce five articles a day, all not added
to
Wikidata, while the articles are fine. In two
days we have about 100 new
articles on nl-wiki, all not added to Wikidata. This is just one wiki,
and
a huge workload to get them added properly.

For this I created a Phabricator task at:
