Wikidata needs to ask the Commons Community before doing commons related changes.
It is so hard to understand what the wikidata people like to do with commons. Tons of text, hard to read. I don't understand what they like to do, but if this change is affecting commons then commons community consensus is needed.

You only say that a zero belongs to a zero, and a two belongs to a two, then you only describe the type of page, but you ignore the subject of a page. That subject matters much more than the namespace number. Especially Wikinews is a wrong example, as most categories on Commons do not have a 1 to 1 relationship with Commons. However, articles on Wikipedia do have mostly a 1 on 1 relationship with categories on Commons.

It's not such a ridiculous rule, if you think of the rationale behind it: if gallery = ns0 and category = ns2, linking ns0 <--> ns2 in the same item is IMHO not a rational thing to do (not even for Wikinews if you ask me, but I'm digressing). So the *practical* problem that we have to address is the list of links in the left column. We really don't have any possibilty to exploit P373 in any way, not even with a .js, to fix this?
