Pages started with a copy/paste of layouts (i.e. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Football/Players ) are very, very common. VE does not seem to support this right now, making VE a very secondary choice to create articles. Probably related to https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33105 , please feel free to mark this as a dupe if needed. Thanks.
I'm going to merge this with bug 52091, which would fix the issue (you could copy-and-paste from the read HTML without needing to do anything special). *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 52091 ***
