If you go to this article and click on the German flag, you get to
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datei:Flag_of_Germany.svg
and a link is presented that bascially says that the original page is in the commons
When you click on it, you get to
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Flag_of_Germany.svg
Is it possible to automatically get to the commons page if the image is on commons (which is not always the case)?
