Article name
editAs I write the article is called University Without Walls- UMass Amherst having got there from University Without Walls via UMass University Without Walls. I do sympathize with the obviously complex journey the principal author has been on with this, but I'm sorry to say that I still don't think it's quite right! Oops. I am absolutely not a WP article-naming expert but I think the hyphen looks rather non-standard, and I also find the spaceless setting of the hyphen a little odd in this context. I do think, by the way, that you were quite right to get Umass Amherst into the title for exactly the reason you said. What seems to be done much more frequently when this kind of qualifier is needed is to use parentheses or a comma, so that it might be something like University Without Walls, UMass Amherst or University Without Walls (UMass Amherst). If we can't interpret what is said at WP:TITLE or its subsection WP:PRECISE to get a satisfactory outcome, I wonder if it might be worth seeking advice from a more experienced editor? My guess is that University Without Walls, UMass Amherst might be the best, but I really do not know. What do you think? Thanks and best wishes DBaK (talk) 20:43, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

UWW article outdated?
editHow was UWW impacted by the partnership announced in 2020 with Chapman / Brandman? Is UWW still operational in Amherst, or has it moved to California? How is UWW accredited? Their website implies that it is accredited by New England, but the further I go, it looks like MyPath is accredited by someone else. Who can straighten this mess out?
