Yeah, to be super clear:

* Profanity in titles can be an issue because Boosted stories are being served up all across the platform.

* Curse words in context that make sense in the story are totally NOT an issue with stories getting Boosted. That said, egregious profanity in the story can be an issue -- but only because it can mess with the story feeling well-written. If every other word is a curse word, the issue is less the cursing and more just the quality of the writing.

Thanks for being open to correction! One of the things I love about the Boost Nomination Pilot is that the publishers in the program do so much organic education with their publications and communities... I just want to make sure that the information that's being shared is accurate. :)
