Cleanup

Wikipedia says this article needs to be cleaned up. Please tell me what I can do to help, or even better, try to clean up the article so it meets the quality standards. Thank you! (Millipedeman 09:39 AM, 27 August 2007 (CST))

The grammar is weak; the language is non-encyclopedic, sounding like it came from an MPD press release. The history is spotty and unsourced. --Orange Mike 15:58, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

My "encyclopedia language" fluency isn't that good. All of the department's history came from a reliable source, right from MPD's website, which has been cited. You have the powers of any other wikipedia user, you can fix it, can't you? (Millipedeman 03:09 PM, 30 August 2007 (CST))

1917 Bombing

The church the bomb was placed next to was not Catholic, but rather an Italian evangelical revival church. (http://bayviewcompass.com/archives/245) 65.30.180.228 (talk) 15:42, 25 March 2010 (UTC)
