Weasel words

There are several, but the phrase "supposed to be" is highly suspect. Robotsintrouble 05:01, 7 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Furthermore, there's no way the otic ganglion sends sympathetic fibers from the glossopharyngeal to the parotid gland. This article needs serious attention. Robotsintrouble 05:03, 7 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]


I made some changes. Hope everyone agrees 88.218.154.83 (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 12:23, 21 January 2009 (UTC).[reply]

Filaments Section

I've disputed this section. Hopefully an anatomist can either confirm or correct the accuracy of these statements, but I know that tensor tympani and tensor veli palatini are derived from the 1st branchial arch which means that they are innervated by the trigeminal (mandibular division to be exact). The otic ganglion, however, receives its preganglionic fibers from the glossopharyngeal nerve which is derived from the 3rd branchial arch. Adamlankford (talk) 02:49, 3 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
