I'm not agree to disable article function because Commons wouldn't be
a multilingual project and all it would be only in English, according
to the language policy about naming categories. People from others
wikiprojects in non-English language would find a lot of problems to
find images for their articles.

This will force projects to build their own true gallery pages rather
than build them on commons. Because of the difficulty of building
truly multilingual things on commons the incentive to avoid working on
commons already exists... this will just increase it further. :(
I wouldn't worry too much. I expect... um... MS Windows to be released
under the GPL before an implementable solution to this problem is
found.
As I said on the Village pump, anyone who is seriously thinking of
implementing some new solution absolutely must make the system
multilingual. That challenge should be enough to keep anyone busy
until the Microsoft-FSF alliance.
