"Well first off, welcome to Wikipedia.  I'm always happy to help someone get started with their editing career.  As for your question, I agree with your mindset and intentions, but I guess I have two questions.  I assume you are asking about the 2009 Women's Professional Soccer season article and not the Women's Professional Soccer article, correct?  If that is the case I would ask where the two articles are that divergent from each other?  If you mean the main WPS article, then I guess I would still agree with your premise, but given the fact that the league is still in its infancy, I don't know how well that would work.  I mean, I agree that every league's article should have roughly the same components: a history section, some information about the clubs that currently comprise the league, some details about the competition, and other notable topics of interest.  The problem is that the sections of the article relating to soccer-specific stadiums, expansion, and rule changes, just for example, were developed by necessity because over MLS's history those have been critical issues for the league.  I don't know if those are necessarily appropriate topics for a WPS article, and that will only be fleshed out over time.  As for the issue of whether it is kosher to just copy the text of an article into another, the answer is absolutely.  I created the 2009 Major League Soccer season article by copying the 2008 article and changing or updating where appropriate.  You don't want to move articles that way, but for creating new articles, especially about recurring things like sports seasons, elections, etc. that is a completely acceptable way of doing things.  Hope that helps, and feel free to ask for anything else you need.    '''''' "
