This article shoud be deleted as (a) it is a poorly written duplicate of the article Military Police, and (b) it is US-centric, imposing a US-specific meaning of the word "provost" on countries where the word is either not used or, if it is, has a different meaning. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.47.241.144 ( talk) 10:12, 21 January 2010 (UTC)
The article military police introduces the 4 meanings but then the content is a duplicate of this article (or vice-versa).There is clearly an article too much. -- Jardeheu ( talk) 10:59, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
I would suggest this article be considered for merger into the ‘military police’ article or re-written. It contains no unique information concerning forces that operate as MP under the title of ‘provost.’
A re-write could be done from the angle of detailing such forces (I’m not even sure there are any?), the historical use of the term ‘provost,’ (I know in the US, before the establishment of a permanent military police corps with professional troops trained in policing that military law enforcement was conducted by a ‘provost marshal’ — a term still used today — with ‘deputies’ or troops assigned to them, usually called ‘provost guards,’ or simply ‘provosts’), etc. MWFwiki ( talk) 07:04, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
OMON is a riot police in Russia, it has never been used as a military police. 81.4.242.107 ( talk) 17:11, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
