WP:URFA/2020 and FA concerns

I was going to nominate this article for WP:TFA for Vrba's 100th birthday, but I am concerned that the article does not meet the featured article criteria anymore. After skimming through the article, most of the text seems to be about the Vrba–Wetzler report. While this is an important part of Vrba's biography that needs to be mentioned at length, much of the information talks about the imapct of the report, which would be better in the report's article. The lede is also missing information about other aspects of Vrba's biography including his testimony at trials, activities after WWII and death. Is anyone interested in fixing up this article?
