Talk:Olfactory tubercle

Speedy delete notice
This seems to be a real biological term. Give me a minute and I'll see if I can dip up something. CrypticBacon 09:27, 19 February 2006 (UTC) Well, now I'm starting to think it should be deleted. This is nothing more than a dictionary definition. It should be redirected to olfaction, based on the root word of the title. CrypticBacon 09:33, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Actually that's right, I removed both tags. But it needs to be rewritten, or maybe just be a redirect for the time being? - Eagleamn 09:30, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
 * How about we settle on a 'proposed delete' tag? CrypticBacon 09:37, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

Go ahead! - Eagleamn 09:38, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

small, oval area at the base of the cerebral hemisphere, between the diverging medial and lateral olfactory striae, in the anteromedial part of the anterior perforated substance; it is formed by a small area of allocortex characterised by the presence of the islands of Calleja. Corresponding to a much more prominent structure in nonprimate mammals (especially rodents and insectivores), the olfactory tubercle receives fibres from the olfactory bulb by way of the intermediate olfactory stria; it has efferent connections with the hypothalamus and the mediodorsal nucleus of the thalamus —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kamran rana (talk • contribs)

 * Looked pretty suspicious to me, but couldn't catch the source. I think a redirect would be the best thing to do here, at least until enough info is added to the main article to be split. - Eagleamn 09:54, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
