Talk:Temporalis muscle

Temporal Line
From reading a variety of anatomy text books, they have all confirmed that the temporalis muscle actually connects to the temporal lines on the parietal bone, not simply the temporal bone. Is this correct? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.233.126.215 (talk • contribs) 00:17, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

Factual error
Another page on wikipedia states that the masseter muscle is the most powerful muscle in the human body - however, here it states that temporalis is the most powerful - I would say the latter is incorrect. (Author unknown.)

Temporal muscle → Temporalis muscle – Google Ngrams shows that the term "temporalis" is far more popular than "temporal" when describing this muscle. It is also becoming more common over time. The main article "Temporal muscle" currently receives around 3,300 views per month, whilst the redirect "Temporalis muscle" receives around 200 and the redirect "Temporalis" receives 250 (combined around 15% of the total).

Whilst this move would be fairly minor (especially considering the fairly minimal use of redirects at the moment), it would be consistent with the most common name for the subject in the scientific literature.
