Disambiguation

This disambiguation page is within the scope of WikiProject Disambiguation, an attempt to structure and organize all disambiguation pages on Wikipedia. If you wish to help, you can edit the page attached to this talk page, or visit the project page, where you can join the project or contribute to the discussion.DisambiguationWikipedia:WikiProject DisambiguationTemplate:WikiProject DisambiguationDisambiguation articles

Shouldn't this be two separate articles? E.g. The Thin Blue Line (sitcom) and The Thin Blue Line (documentary film). Then The Thin Blue Line could be a disambiguation page. Alternatively, whichever one is more famous (a tricky decision - probably just depends on whether one is American or British) could get the page to itself, with the more obscure one getting a parenthetical qualifier. Or it could just be left as it is. What do other people think? -- Oliver PEREIRA 04:42 Dec 5, 2002 (UTC)

I think you're right. I also think (television) and (film) would be better indicators (both of which seem to be standard on Wiki') - stewacide 14:44 Dec 28, 2002 (UTC)

If you decide to disambiguate, make it (film), certainly; I don't know about (television) (not my area of expertise, if I have an area of expertise). :-) --KQ

More propoganda, NPOV, etc. Why are all these articles slanted towards Law Enforcement?75.72.92.166 (talk) 09:55, 25 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Systemic bias. LEOs who are Wikipedians are more likely than non-LEOs to extensively edit articles related to their occupation—you write what you know, after all. Among those editors, some are certain to have strong feelings which result in a non-neutral point of view, sometimes without even realizing it. Most of it will be sorted out over time by those Wikipedians (LEOs included) who have a better eye for bias, including their own. 70.172.214.70 (talk) 02:45, 29 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
