Two non-free stamp questions

Nature of America contains the following 9 non-free images which fail WP:NFCC#3a. How can I nominate them all together? I do suggest retaining one image to illustrate the article which is about the stamps.

• File:1999 Sonoran Desert stamp sheet.jpg
• File:2000 Pacific Coast Rain Forest stamp sheet.jpg
• File:2001 Great Plains Prairie stamp sheet.jpg
• File:2002 Longleaf Pine Forest stamp sheet.jpg
• File:2003 Arctic Tundra stamp sheet.jpg
• File:2004 Pacific Coral Reef stamp sheet.jpg
• File:2005 Northeast Deciduous Forest stamp sheet.jpg
• File:2006 Southern Florida Wetland stamp sheet.jpg
• File:2007 Alpine Tundra stamp sheet.jpg

The other curious situation concerns these UK tax discs used in Velology which are using the wrong template {{Non-free stamp}}. What do you suggest doing with them? They too would seem to fail WP:NFCC#3a if they really are still in copyright and I assume that the 50-year crown copyright applies so the first three might be improperly licenced when they are actually in the public domain.

You're right about the Nature of America sheets and I have nominated them for deletion. If you're curious you can see how I did it. (By the way, are you using Wikipedia:Twinkle or User:Howcheng/quickimgdelete.js to nominate these images? I hope you're not doing them manually.)

About the tax discs, I would say that they are {{PD-ineligible}}, but you might want to ask at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. All the best, – Quadell ^(talk) 13:47, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

No, not manually: I use Twinkle, otherwise I would be up all night right now. OK, with this edit I see how you merged the nominations by putting a new first heading and removing all the later individual headings. I never thought of that. For the Tax discs I will ask at WP:MCQ though both of us also hang out there so let's hope some others have some opinions. Cheers & thanks ww2censor (talk) 14:12, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

Note this edit too, just to be polite. Thanks for all you do! – Quadell ^(talk) 14:27, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
