Generally good, but referencing needs to be improved

• More references needed. "Switzerland and the European Union" only has references in the first paragraph; more are needed across the article where I've put cite needed tags (I've put them in general paragraphs needing cites, not just after specific facts)
• Separate notes from references using <ref group=note> - it's a lot easier to use than having them all grouped together
• A few 1-2 sentence paragraphs that disrupt the flow ought to be combined with others
• Couple of dead links
• Add an external ref for number 22 about Lenin

• Are all the external links really necessary?
• Possibly too many images?
• "Swiss armed forces" - "a high percentage of the people voted in favour of it" - can you quote the actual figure?

I'm putting the article on hold, as I think the references can be sorted out in a week.

I added some references and separated them from the notes but there are still two citations missing in the first section (Etymology). Apparently all dead links have alternate source. mgeo talk 16:25, 25 January 2010 (UTC)

Pass The article is at the GA standard - there are no substantial problems that would cause the article to fail the review. However, I think I can still see some areas that have still not been fixed from the first PR over 3 years ago, although the most significant have been. Jhbuk (talk) 18:22, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
