"Should I be entering 0 for Schedule I: Part II, Line 1a, Col II in the WI return " - were you thinking of doing this in Forms mode? I would prefer that you do as little as possible in Forms mode.
In the Wisconsin interview, you will see the following screen (this is from the desktop product, the Online screen may vary). Since you did not have an HSA before 2011, you should enter zero here.
When you enter zero here and then Continue, you won't see any additional screens asking questions about your use of the HSA since 2010. Then your Wisconsin Schedule I will be happily devoid of HSA entries except for the occasional zero.
See if this works for you.
