Your recent changes to social shopping do not conform to encyclopedic standards. Social retailing is not a more "searchable term" than social shopping. According to Google, social shopping is used much more commonly (orders of magnitude more commonly). As you are probably aware, social retailing is a recently trademarked term. You have also conveniently added information about this company and an external link to it. Trademarking a neologism is not notable (see WP:N). That is to say, changing the title of the article to a trademarked term without discussing it with other editors was not appropriate at this time. Also, the information about the company you have added is not notable and probably should not be included the in the article. Nposs 22:32, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
