Seals on the lapels of the police officers

I couldn't help but notice (and nitpick) about what was on the lapels of the police officers in the movie. I couldnt see it crisply, but it looked like the seal of the state of Maryland. Am I wrong? I know it definitely isn't Ohio's seal, and I couldn't find one for Glenview. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 100.44.55.193 (talk) 22:52, 2 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Over-citation?

In copyediting the article, I noticed four citations in a row for Ben Stiller's character in the "Cast" section. Per WP:OVERCITE#How to trim excessive citations, perhaps the least-valuable reference should be removed (I find more than three footnotes in a row to be clutter). All the best, Miniapolis (talk) 16:19, 30 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'll take a look when you're finished copy editing, I don't want to cause you an edit conflict. I think the problem was each source carried a part of the info but not all, but I'll double check. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 17:22, 30 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
