  We present the results of UV spectroscopy of AGNs with double-peaked Balmer
emission lines. In 2/3 of the objects, the far-UV resonance lines are strong,
with single-peaked profiles resembling those of Seyfert galaxies. The Mg II
line is the only UV line with a double-peaked profile. In the remaining
objects, the far-UV resonance lines are relatively weak but still
single-peaked. The latter group also displays prominent UV absorption lines,
indicative of a low-ionization absorber. We interpret the difference in the
profiles of the emission lines as resulting from two different regions: a
dense, low-ionization accretion disk (the predominant source of the Balmer and
Mg II lines), and a lower density, higher-ionization wind (the predominant
source of the far-UV resonance lines). These results suggest a way of
connecting the double-peaked emitters with the greater AGN population: in
double-peaked emitters the accretion rate onto the black hole is low, making
the wind feeble and allowing the lines from the underlying disk to shine
through. This scenario also implies that in the majority of AGNs, the wind is
the source of the broad emission lines.
