 * General
 * 10 dead links
 * 5 dablinks
 * Like users said at FAC and the talkpage, it have too many images, you should create a gallery in the aricle or maybe with Swastika is enough.
 * A lot of tags, if you cannot provide the fact, remove it.


 * Lead
 * Per WP:Lead this section should have at least 3 paragraphs, also, remeber that it summarize the entire article.
 * Hakenkreuz shouldn't be in bold.
 * The hatnote about merging Manji (Kanji) must dissapear.


 * Etymology and alternative names
 * meaning any lucky or auspicious object, -> meaning "any lucky or auspicious object",
 * the list in the section has to dissapear.


 * Geometry
 * Nazi ensigns had a through and through image, so both versions were present, one on each side, but the Nazi flag on land was right-facing on both sides and at a 45° rotation.[7]

The name "sauwastika" is sometimes given to the left-facing form of the swastika .[8] -> Both para should be merged in one oly paragraph.
 * File:Selection of Vinča symbols in Gimbutas font.png missing permission.

I would continue reviewing the article, but the nominator is blocked, so this is for other users, I recommend first resolve those comments (in special the "General section"). Take this to per review before WP:GAN or WP:FAC. Article quick failed. Tb hotch Ta lk C. 00:36, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
