note: I made The Grapes of Wrath a subpage of the novel's, as it is likely to be considered in that context, but made The Informer a separate page with Ford's name in the title, as its plot is completely distinct from the movie of the same name by Michael Mann. I did the same thing for The Fugitive, as it has no relation to the 1993 film with Harrison Ford (though perhaps it should be a subpage of a page of that name dealing with the Graham Greene novel? How well is the novel known?) Similarly, I expect that Rio Grande should have a separate page that is not a subset of the actual river's page. I hope this is the correct approach. If not, by all means feel free to change it.  :-)—Preceding unsigned comment added by Conversion script (talkcontribs) 15:51, 25 February 2002 (UTC)Reply

  • Sometimes the best first level way of disambiguating movies is by putting the year of production in brackets after the title. No one would ever think of looking for the movie under the director's name, if they know the name at all. Putting the year after the name on the list (though not as part of the link) also helps to give a better chronology of an artist's career --user:Eclecticology—Preceding unsigned comment added by Eclecticology (talkcontribs) 18:12, 27 February 2002 (UTC)Reply

It seems to me that John Ford would be a good candidate for primary subject disambiguation, with John Ford (film director) here at John Ford, and a disambiguation notice at the bottom or at [[John Ford (disambiguation)]]. Any thoughts? —Paul A 02:07, 3 Sep 2003 (UTC)

Nobody spoke against it, so I've made the change. This page is now John Ford (disambiguation), and John Ford is the film director. --Paul A 03:40, 26 Nov 2004 (UTC)
