The reference(s) you added or changed (https://tardis.fandom.com/wiki/Izzy_Sinclair, https://tardis.fandom.com/wiki/Endgame_(DWM_comic_story)) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert.

  Hello, I'm XLinkBot. I wanted to let you know that one or more external links you added to Fred Pincus have been removed because they seemed to be inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page, or take a look at our guidelines about links.

The external link(s) you added or changed (https://fredlpincusblog.files.wordpress.com/2022/02/affirmativeaction.pdf) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a blog, forum, free web hosting service, fansite, or similar site (see 'Links to avoid', #11), then please check the information on the external site thoroughly. Note that such sites should probably not be linked to if they contain information that is in violation of the creator's copyright (see Linking to copyrighted works), or they are not written by a recognised, reliable source. Linking to sites that you are involved with is also strongly discouraged (see conflict of interest).

Replaceable fair use File:Tshegofatso Seakgoe of The Throne.png

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:Tshegofatso Seakgoe of The Throne.png. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
  2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 19:21, 22 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

Use of non-free images are require to meet all of the non-free content criteria. In this case, WP:NFCC#1 is not met. It is not sufficient for there to be no free images of the subject found. It must also be the case that no free images could be made. As a living person, a free image could be made even if there is no current free image. -- Whpq (talk) 14:20, 6 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
