I hope we are not forced to connect Commons categories to Wikipedia
categories because of that, which has been a nasty side effect of
connecting things through Wikidata, due to  misunderstanding the Gallery
space in Commons and taking it for some kind of equivalent to articles,
which it is not in the least.
But a huge lot of Commons categories probably should never have any
Wikidata item (ex: "Eiffel Tower taken from the west corner of the
Trocadero terrace" (don't know if this one exists, but that's the kind of
stuff we usually create there to classify views), so I'm not especially
confident that should be done.

Best,
Paulo
