FBOY Island

  • ... that FBOY Island pits three female contestants to identify twenty-four men as either womanizers or nice guys?

    • ALT2:... that when reviewing FBOY Island, Variety's Caroline Framke, thought that "[i]t didn’t take long for 'FBoy Island' to make me feel like my brain was leaking out my ears, drip by stupefied drip," calling the use of the abbreviated term fboys "one of [ HBO Max's ] most baffling, annoying mysteries."

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: None required.

Overall: Article is new enough, long enough, well-sourced, neutral and plagiarism-free. ALT0 is interesting and cited in article. While ALT1 is interesting, I think it may be confusing for anyone unfamiliar with the show as they wouldn't expect it to be about womanisers. ALT2 at 290+ characters and, therefore, too long. Nominator has no prior noms so no QPQ needed. Pamzeis (talk) 07:38, 10 August 2021 (UTC)

Promoted ALT0 to T:DYK/P7. When I promoted, I removed the italics for nice guys as I did not think it conformed to MOS:ITALICS. Please ping or leave a message on my talk page if there are any concerns. Z1720 (talk) 02:10, 17 August 2021 (UTC)
