My home wiki, nowiki, has had a stern warning not to upload images to the local wiki, but to use Wikimedia Commons instead, since 2007. All local uploads since have been deleted and moved to Commons (if they were worth keeping), except for a few screenshots uploaded by local admins.
I'm saying all of this to show that we don't need to add Community-consensus-needed, because it is already clearly demonstrated. These measures were done, I suspect, before the commonsuploads dblist existed, and we were just never aware of it.
