The commons isn't quite that arbitrary.  They allow images which are of
interest, but "of interest" is rather arbitrary.  Generally, though, images
used by wikipedia itself are not candidates for deletion.

So what is needed is a bot of some sort that trawls the OSM database (which
wikipedia has a copy of to create its own maps) to look for
wikimedia_commons
tags and somehow flags relevant images as being used on OSM.
