Don't ever hesitate to ask. I'd love if more editors would do it this way rather than going their way without knowing the basics.

1. Ideally, no information should be copied from the character's different counterparts. Exceptions could be allowed for Golden/Silver Age characters that were later on retconned or something.

2. All history should be written as if there was no "previous version", because not doing that, would make the article out of universe. Since Prime Earth was a clean reboot, all history is "new" and thus, it must be included using primary sources as the main reference. There's no need to make a differentiation even if Maggie's history in Batwoman Vol 2 is similar to that of her New Earth counterpart. Take for example Bruce Wayne (New Earth) and Bruce Wayne (Prime Earth). Batman's early history has not changed that much, but that doesn't mean the info could be just copied from one page to another.

3. The real name has to be included in the infobox. There's a field on the character template for the real name. When you include the full name, make sure to also include the source as a reference.

Again, feel free to ask if you have any doubts.
