But when I look at the structure of the "plaintext" portions of You are not allowed to view links.

Wow, this is an exciting comment! So, an idea might be that the manuscript is encoded as follows:

1) plaintext (in Latin or German or ...) converted by some unknown process to repetitive-looking plaintext-like words
2) those words converted to Voynichese by some simple substitution cipher
