User talk:Srivatsanarayana

October 2021
Hello Srivatsanarayana. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to Draft:Tarushi Software Solutions, gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially serious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat search-engine optimization.

Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are extremely strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.

Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are  required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Srivatsanarayana. The template Paid can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form:. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. 331dot (talk) 09:36, 15 October 2021 (UTC)

 * Thank you. Please place posts at the bottom of a discussion, for proper discussion flow(top to bottom). Note that to merit an article, an app must receive significant coverage in independent reliable sources, showing how it meets Wikipedia's special definition of notability. Merely documenting where the app is available and its features is insufficient. 331dot (talk) 10:06, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
 * I would note that one does not have to be specifically paid for edits to be a paid editor- any paid relationship triggers the disclosure requirements, just for your awareness. 331dot (talk) 10:07, 15 October 2021 (UTC)

I came to know about this app from this site which mentioned Shop It as the top used app for mystery shoppers. https://www.mystery-shoppers.co.uk/shopper-news/shopper-tips-our-top-5-apps-for-mystery-shoppers/ The top one, Shop IT Stealth Notes is one of the products of this company Tarushi Software.

Also it is always ranked under top 100 apps featured on App Store.
 * You will need at least three independent reliable sources to summarize in order for this app to merit a Wikipedia article. The vast majority of apps- even highly used ones- do not merit articles, usually because they lack the significant coverage needed.  That one online story included it in a list is not significant coverage.  Please read Your First Article. 331dot (talk) 10:54, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
