Wheel wobbling question

I do some mechanical work on bikes. I am always learning something.

When it comes to wheels I am very inexperienced.

My rear wheel has a wobble. The wobble is not back forth but up and down.

Is this due to the tension of the spokes? Or is my wheel damaged?

As I spin the wheel and flex the spokes I can tell some spokes have less tension than others.

Please help.
