Getting out the word about a new concept? Not here, I'm afraid edit
I'm afraid Wikipedia is not the right place. Indeed, we have an entire essay titled, "Wikipedia Is Not Here To Promote Your Noble Cause". If the subject has not already been addressed by sociological and psychological experts in peer-reviewed scientific journals, or discussed at length in the serious public press, then the time is not yet ripe for a Wikipedia article. Our articles, by intention and design, are about topics already established as notable in the public eye. --Orange Mike | Talk 00:29, 18 July 2015 (UTC)
