Talk:Cribriform plate

Lead
The first sentence of this article would better serve the general reader by describing what the cribiform plate is. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.74.1.159 (talk) 01:35, 22 January 2016 (UTC)

it's so-called cribriform lamina too... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 158.194.196.191 (talk • contribs) 21:03, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Images
This article, as well as others, has been saturated with images. Wikipedia is "NOT" a textbook or repository. Otr500 (talk) 18:28, 27 August 2018 (UTC)


 * I deleted 3 images that were reverted back (total of nine) now leaving six. I feel this is still too many for a start-class article but a hopefully happy medium per Wikipedia is not a mirror or a repository of links, images, or media files, nor a "manual, guidebook, textbook, or scientific journal", to reduce the picturebook effect.

 * Hi ! Thank you for doing this, and I agree with your judgement on 6 being an appropriate number of useful images at this stage. Bibeyjj (talk) 16:53, 18 August 2021 (UTC)

Not just humans
I've changed the lede from "In human anatomy" to "In mammalian anatomy" per this academic paper. ~dom Kaos~ (talk) 15:40, 26 October 2019 (UTC)


 * Hi ! I have added this reference to the "Other animals" section. Thanks! Bibeyjj (talk) 16:53, 18 August 2021 (UTC)

diameter of these holes?
Hi, I came to the article hoping I'd find the smallest sieve - made by evolution :), but looking at the images, it seems like these holes are not even µm but mm large - but there's no mention of size. Can anybody add some lines about this? Thy, SvenAERTS (talk) 09:41, 4 May 2022 (UTC)
