Perhaps such a category should only be tagged exactly when it's not linked
on a wikidata page.
Otherwise it seems unnecessary.

As Andreas mentioned, if people can add this tag even when it's linked on
the wikidata page, eventually people will start adding wikiquote=*
wikivoyage=* and so on.

Indeed, in most cases wikipedia=* can be redundant when there is already a
wikidata=* key, but wikipedia=* is a well-established key, which is not the
case of wikimedia_commons=*

In other words, don't need to fix what ain't broken.
