I'm not sure University of Wisconsin (former) is the best name for this article... perhaps University of Wisconsin (1956-1971) would be better.

Currently, there's no entity that's officially called University of Wisconsin, but before 1956 this was the name of what is now University of Wisconsin- Madison. So University of Wisconsin (former) is itself ambiguous, and could refer to UW-Madison. Andrewa 02:57, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

I think it is a good idea to change it to University of Wisconsin (1956-1971). Miaers 14:35, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
I agree, so I've gone ahead and moved the article. —Mira 22:13, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
