Labrador Retriever
Hello, File:YellowLabradorLooking new.jpg was chosen by the community in June 2009 and should not be changed without discussion. If you which to have you image included, then you need to start a discussion on the Labrador Retriever talk page explaining why you feel that File:Yellow Labrador Retriever.jpg should be the lead image instead ofFile:YellowLabradorLooking new.jpg. The community will then debate the merits of each image and determine which image should be used as the lead image. Coaster1983 (talk) 14:58, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Khatra Virus
A tag has been placed on Khatra Virus requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
