Newly created article, long enough and sourced throughout. It's definitely interesting that a college basketball player and Harlem Globetrotter earned a PhD and made his acting debut as one of the greatest of all time. It's written neutrally and QPQ is provided. I'm adding the italics for the TV program. ALT0 and ALT2 are approved, but ALT1 is not. The Hughes article makes no mention of Kareem's bachelor's degree, and I don't know that it's that interesting that Kareen has a BA. – Muboshgu (talk) 23:46, 19 May 2022 (UTC)

Personally, I disagree with you on crossing out ALT1 but you're the Reviewer and it's ok. I thought it was interesting. Thanks for the Review. Shearonink (talk) 02:21, 20 May 2022 (UTC)
