CommonsHelper Helper (CH²) is a user script which expedites the process of moving free images over to the Wikimedia Commons using Magnus Manske's excellent tool CommonsHelper. When installed, this script adds a "Move image to the Commons" button to image edit pages, which brings up CommonsHelper in an inline frame and automatically tags the image with {{NowCommons}} when complete.
