Thanks for uploading File:Gisèle Lagacé au Comiccon de Montréal 2019.jpg. 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:
{{
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.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) 13:50, 10 January 2022 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:Gisèle Lagacé au Comiccon de Montréal 2019.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. -- B-bot ( talk) 18:29, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Harley Quinn, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Joker. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Reddit is a self published source. Per WP:USINGSPS, specifically the section "Identifying self-published sources", "Identifying a self-published source is usually straightforward. You need two pieces of information: 1: Who is the author or creator of the work? 2: Who is the publisher of the work? If the answers to these questions are the same, then the work is self-published." The author is the director, the publisher is the director, meaning it qualifies as self-published. Additionally, Reddit falls under user generated content which isn't an acceptable source per WP:UGC. That policy specifically even names Reddit. So because of those policies, Reddit should not be used as a source. So please leave those statements out of the article.--Rockchalk 7 17 19:18, 1 February 2022 (UTC)
Thank you for
your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from one or more pages into
Gellert Grindelwald. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere,
Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an
edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and
linking to the copied page, e.g.,
copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution
. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{
copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at
Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you.
