Talk:China Oilfield Services

Article issues
This article was created in 2005 and at present has had 49 editors with 77 edits and two references (sources). The best offer was seven "inline citation" tags (some from 2016) cluttering up the article sort of incognito. What we actually have is a Wikipedia listed company profile, with a nice advertising template and colored "China Oilfield Services logo". A problem, other than ignoring things that Wikipedia is not suppose to be, is the circumventing of policies and guidelines on sourcing and Inline citations, that results in apparent original research. "IF" there is no found interest in expanding such articles with proper sourcing, and they are notable, then cut them back to a career stub with the two sources. I would think this would include trimming the nice looking logo back to something less colorful for a less than company appeared advertising. I just think career tags should be given a layoff at a point, so a thirteen year old article is either improved or left as a career stub, that would be the lesser of evils.
