WP:JARGON: moksha, samsara. give a short description in brackets. Link to jain specific articles
Check all links: Udaygiri is wrong.
Link people like Basava, Ghazni kingdoms like Hoysala etc.
Jain or Jaina: inconsistent use
Naming convention: Some in common English, some in IAST. Adi Shankara vs Kumarila Bhatta.
Add dates for kings, people e.g. Vishnuvardhana
Suddenly I see Decline, but when it was its helm what was its greatest extent? approx. followers? prominent Jain kings/dynasties (other than the few mentioned)?
"Shaivite singers introduced Jains to Shaivism" singers??? Are you sure this the right word?
"the Hoysala king Vishnuvardhana, also known as Bittideva," italicized detail is not needed.
Reads a copyedit
"Shaivite singers introduced Jains to Shaivism" is repetitive
I don't know whether the first two questions are answerable or not (when was it at its greatest extent? and approximate followers) I cannot find a reference which can precisely answer that question. I, however, have added more kings/dynasties who have patronized Jainism.
I am unable to find the required information in those books. Most of them says that Jainism had many followers without giving any approximate number. Also they do not answer the question as to when was it at its greatest extent. They mention various reasons for decline in different parts of India at different time.

Singers was the word mentioned in the source, I have changed it to poets.
Did minor copyediting
The line Shaivite singers introduced Jains to
Shaivism now reads Śaivite poets like Sambandar and Appar (c. 7th century CE) introduced Jains to Shaivism
Replaced of Islamic faith with of Islam
I have made certain changes only at the history section, please see whether they are OK, so that I can make similar changes to the rest of the article. Thanks
