Braincare is a notable term, a quick google search will show how often it is being searched for. Your brain impacts how you feel on a daily basis from your energy to your focus to your mood—as well as directly impacting quality of life into old age. Braincare as a practice is the act of making conscious lifestyle decisions in order to better care for the brain.

Danmurrayserter The draft had no independent reliable sources whatsoever; all Wikipedia articles must be sourced to independent reliable sources; in this case, that means you would need to provide reliable sources that discuss the use of this term(not just sources that use the term, but discuss its use). 331dot (talk) 11:30, 11 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

My article was rejected based on referencing issues- these were not elaborated. I would like to know what exactly was wrong with the referencing so I can better my article and get it accepted. JaneK153 (talk) 17:57, 11 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi JaneK153. In Articles for creation parlance, the draft was declined (which allows improvement and re-submission), not rejected (which does not give the option of re-submission). The draft cites two references, both of which are books by Caroline Shenaz Hossein. What's confusing is that after the first two paragraphs of the draft there are no more inline citations, so it isn't clear what source(s) the remaining text is based on. There's a "See:" followed by a link to a video, and a long section titled "Further References", but it isn't clear how they relate to the text. See WP:LAYOUT for what standard appendices are used in Wikipedia articles, how they're ordered, how they're titled, and what you may have in them.
The draft is framed as an article about a concept. To show that the concept is notable (suitable for a stand alone encyclopedia article), you would need to show more than the fact that Hossein coined it and what she means by it. You would need to cite independent reliable secondary sources that have something to say about her concept. Obviously they would have to be published after she coined the term, and be written by someone other than her. That rules out many of the texts you've listed as "Further References", but some of them might be usable.
If you can't identify sources that show that the concept is notable, you might still be able to write about the concept in a larger article, such as a biography of the author, or an article about the book in which she coined the expression. See WP:PROF and WP:NBOOK for the referencing requirements for such articles. --Worldbruce (talk) 22:25, 11 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, when you don't include any actual information about what you're referring to, it makes it difficult to help you. Be more specific about what you're talking about, please. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 23:14, 11 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
