I see no reason why this can't become a GA fairly quickly. I certainly apologize for doing this as I know how long the GA process can be but I simply would prefer someone else to take care of this issue. However, for any future reviewer, rest assured that apart from this potential close paraphrasing issue that the article is substantially well-written and I generally approve of it going to GA status otherwise.

original research. Virtually everything is verified and the only unverified statement I found is not contentious and did happen. As for copyvio, there is a degree of close paraphrasing but I'm not sure I'd say this is copyright violation as the article does not primarily rely upon one source. May ask for a second opinion, however.
906:, also given high percentages by Earwig, look non-problematic to me. To me, the level of copying from the first two sources (and the less clear-cut evidence of more copying, better-disguised by copyediting) and the fact that the person who included this material is also the GA nominator would be grounds for a quick fail. —
