EverNote (the old Windows notetaking app with capital 'N')
As a former buyer and user of EverNote (the old Windows notetaking application with a capital 'N'), I fail to understand why, except maybe for corporate tampering, every trace of the pre-Web product(s) has been wiped out of the article. The old EverNote (1.x, 2.x) had some quite devoted followers, who were left out in the cold by EN. Just added a few bits back. --Mottenkiste (talk) 23:49, 19 December 2019 (UTC)
Infobox updates
It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at P. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

Hello. I'm an employee at Evernote and am here on behalf of the company. I know that editing the Evernote page directly is forbidden by Wikipedia's guidelines, so I'll be proposing edits on this Talk page for other editors to review and hopefully implement. I will try to be as transparent as possible and disclose my COI whenever I post here.
My first request is a simple infobox edit. I wanted to add two items to the Types category: Note-taking software and Integrated software. Evernote is listed on the Comparison of note-taking software Wikipedia page and it fits the Integrated software page's definition in that it "combines the most commonly used functions of many productivity software programs into one application."
My second request is a little more complicated. I see that the Stable release category in the infobox doesn't have a button that makes it easy to update the current version. I've noticed these buttons on pages like Procreate and Messenger. If any editor knows how to add a button like this, I would really appreciate it, as Evernote tends to release a new version of its software about every two weeks.
In the meantime, could an editor update the current Stable release template? The latest version numbers for each platform are available at the notes page on Evernote's website.
I would like to talk with editors in the future about the overall structure of the Evernote page, but I thought it would be best to start with these initial infobox issues. If anyone can help me out with them, I'd be very grateful! Thanks, Evernotebrian (talk) 23:55, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
- Partly done: I have added the requested types and updated the version number, and removed Productivity software as integrated software is a type of productivity software. I'm not sure how to add an edit button for the version numbers, though. Best regards, Vukky TalkGuestbook 09:15, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
Really appreciate the help, User:Vukky. It's okay that you couldn't figure out the edit button problem. It seems like a tricky coding issue. I'll have some more substantial edits for this page coming in the near future, in case you want to check those out. If not, no worries! Thanks again!

Updating company section

Hey there! I see that most of the infobox updates have been made, which is great. Thanks again to user:Vukky for making those.
I'm now moving on to a new edit request. The current version of the Company section lacks content on more recent developments at Evernote and some of the sourcing on the existing copy isn't very good. So I composed a new draft that I think solves both those problems while also organizing the section with subheadings and adding some relevant details about the company's ups and downs over the years.
Because this draft is lengthy, I put it on my user page so that editors can easily review it, ask questions, and/or air criticisms without cluttering this Talk page. I also wanted to suggest changing the heading for this section from Company to History, as that's a more accurate description of what it is, stretching from Evernote's origins up to (roughly) present day.
Just to be totally clear: I'm an Evernote employee, which is why I'm being extra careful here. I will continue to refrain from posting directly to the company's page and will always ask other, non-COI editors to look over my work to ensure it complies with Wikipedia's guidelines.
If anyone could take a look at my draft and perhaps approve it, that would be awesome. Thanks. Evernotebrian (talk) 18:11, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
- Hi everyone, I'm Greg and I also work for Evernote. I'm stepping in for Brian while he is on leave, and will be following the guidelines for conflict of interest just as he has done. Now that I've introduced myself, I wanted to check if User:Vukky had seen this request and might be able to help provide some feedback or suggest any other places I could look for help? Thanks!

- Hey, user:Kvng! I noticed that you've been active in the Software WikiProject, where I posted a note asking for help with this request. I'm pinging you directly to ask if you have interest in reviewing Brian's proposed History draft. You can obviously read his request and my follow-up note above, but for ease of reference, I'll drop a link here to the draft itself. If you don't have time to review or don't wish to, that's totally fine, but I'm a bit stuck here and thought I would ask for assistance. Thank you! Evernote Greg (talk) 14:24, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
