[Wikipedia-l] The deletion of not used pictures

On nl:wikipedia a valid reason for the deletion of pictures is that they 
are not used. I have asked at "the kroeg" that they should not be 
deleted in anticipation of WikiCommons.

Andre Engels asked me why I thought that there will be a WikiCommons as 
both he and I have so far been given the cold shoulder treatment on 
WikiCommons. His question is fair. What do I base my trust on that there 
will be in the near future a WikiCommons ?

Question:
*Should these pictures be deleted from nl:wikipedia ?
*When will there be a place where we can upload material that is not 
used on nl:wikipedia and that will be eventually available in WikiCommons ?

Thanks,
