A posted a enhancement request based on this at bugzilla [1].

In my view the easiest solution would be to add a tick box in the upload
campaign for whether the image is part of this sub-competition or not. It
would however also require that the placement of the wikitext on the image
page could be controlled so that this template/category is not put in the
description field.

I encountered a similar need during Wiki Loves Public Art where some lists
were set up so that they could tell whether a FoP template should be added
to the image or not.

The quick-and-dirty workaround is to simply have a field in the upload
campaign with the following:
wikitext: "{{safesubst:#if:$1|WWI specific wikitext}}"
label: "Is this image part of the WWI sub-competition? Leave blank if not"
