Is this article eligible to be called a proper article? Or is it somewhere between a stub and a real article? As the Wikipedia stub section says: "conversely, a short article on a topic of narrow scope may not be a stub." I'm unsure, as this is a topic of narrow scope. --Marcus 08:02, 8 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think there's enough there now to justify replacing the anatomy stub tag with "Category:Anatomy". Thank you for your additions. --Arcadian 12:04, 8 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

remove the thing about it being outdated![edit]

with all due respect, i hardly think the info from the grays anatomy is about to change before we evolve into a new species.

but fyi we were taught it at tertiary level just as it is in your article based on that public domain article.

kudos to gray for being right for so many cenutries ;P —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 201.238.127.56 (talk) 01:17, 13 December 2006 (UTC).[reply]

rydizzll@yahoo.com is my email. thanks again.

I'm afraid you've come to the wrong place for such questions. We're Wikipedians, not doctors. You may see the article on epilepsy, but for any expert personal advice, you'd better call your doctor. Mikael Häggström 19:01, 11 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Article Title and Information[edit]

I am a nursing student and came across this article as I was searching for some information regarding congenital heart defects. I believe this article, (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foramen_ovale_(skull)), may need to be edited due to incorrect information. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the large opening at the base of the skull known as the "Foramen Magnum"? Not Foramen Ovale..? The foramen ovale is the opening between the atria of the fetal heart that normally closes shortly after birth and is then considered a congenital heart defect if it does not. 174.55.146.147 (talk) 10:50, 21 May 2012 (UTC) J.
