Well theoretically, the way the monuments lists templates are set up, they have their own "type" tags per monument with words like "castle", "gate", "barn", "tree", "rock formation", and so forth. WWI could be just one of these, and it would be nice if the upload campaigns could somehow add categories on Commons per region based on these. So yes, delivering some sort of functionality like this would be highly useful for Commons in general, not just for this specific example of WWI monuments.
