Draft:Inc & Co Group

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  • Comment: I only reviewed the first four references and they do not meet WP:ORGCRIT. The rest is all WP:REFBOMBing and needs cleaned up. Please use sources that meet WP:ORGCRIT to show notability and only one reference is needed for each acquisition (one of them has eight which is overkill).
