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

- 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.
