Hi there! We just got a notice from Apple that our podcast was removed from the directory for using explicit words in the titles and/or episode descriptions. I went through and scrubbed and f-words, but am wondering if any of you know what else gets you flagged? (We are tagged as explicit, FWIW.)
You are allowed 'explicit' words within the contents of the actual recordings, provided that you have the 'itunes:explicit' tag set to 'yes' for any episodes containing them and also in the top section of the feed if any episodes uses them.
However, you are not allowed explicit language in titles, subtitles or summaries no matter how the tag is set because people would see them before getting any warning. The tags warn people who might be offended away from listening to the episodes.
As to other restrictions they are listed here:

"Explicit" words?
