Yes, probably the very first thing would be to ask Wellcome if they can help us with the batch upload, with good metadata, etc. Fae commented on the Commons thread and would be good to get you going.

I imagine some of you may have seen that the Wellcome Library announced yesterday [1] that they have made over 100,000 high resolution images of manuscripts, paintings, etchings, early photography, and advertisements available using a CC-BY license. I was wondering [2] if it is ok to upload CC-BY images to the Commons.
This is mostly in theory since the downloads are sitting behind reCAPTCHAs and several levels of click throughs — but you never know :-)
