for the original hook. Recently promoted to GA; hook fine and confirmed by two online sources. All OK. --Peter I. Vardy (talk) 14:05, 16 July 2014 (UTC)

Peter I. Vardy, did you check the sources for close paraphrasing and neutrality? Yoninah (talk) 23:38, 16 July 2014 (UTC)

At one point, the article had large-scale copypasting from the official biography, though Earwigbot's copyvio detector now reports a 4.1% match and finds no problems generally. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 08:19, 17 July 2014 (UTC)

As a recent GA success, I should have thought this was covered. See above about close paraphrasing. The article appears completely neutral to me. --Peter I. Vardy (talk) 08:46, 18 July 2014 (UTC)

A quick spin through the article's history (eg: here, here, here and here) shows quite a bit of effort into removing copyvios and NPOV from the article before taking it to GA. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 09:27, 18 July 2014 (UTC)
