I used these queries to check some settings:

-- List all database files and their tablespaces:
select  file_name, tablespace_name, status
,bytes   /1000000  as MB
,maxbytes/1000000  as MB_max
from dba_data_files ;

-- What temporary tablespace is each user using?:
select username, temporary_tablespace, default_tablespace from dba_users ;

-- List all tablespaces and some settings:
select tablespace_name, status, contents, extent_management
from dba_tablespaces ;

TABLESPACE_NAME                CONTENTS  EXTENT_MAN STATUS
------------------------------ --------- ---------- ---------
SYSTEM                         PERMANENT DICTIONARY ONLINE
TOOLS                          PERMANENT DICTIONARY ONLINE
TEMP                           TEMPORARY DICTIONARY OFFLINE
TMP                            TEMPORARY LOCAL      ONLINE

Now, the above query and the storage clause of the old 'create tablespace TEMP' command seem to tell us the tablespace only allows temporary objects, so it should be safe to assume that no one created any tables or other permanent objects in TEMP by mistake, as I think Oracle would prevent that. However, just to be absolutely certain, I decided to double-check. Checking for any tables in the tablespace is very easy:

-- Show number of tables in the TEMP tablespace - SHOULD be 0:
select count(*)  from dba_all_tables
where tablespace_name = 'TEMP' ;

Checking for any other objects (views, indexes, triggers, pl/sql, etc.) is trickier, but this query seems to work correctly - note that you'll probably need to connect internal in order to see the sys_objects view:

-- Shows all objects which exist in the TEMP tablespace - should get
-- NO rows for this:
column owner        format a20
column object_type  format a30
column object_name  format a40
select
o.owner  ,o.object_name
,o.object_type
from sys_objects s
,dba_objects o
,dba_data_files df
where df.file_id = s.header_file
and o.object_id = s.object_id
and df.tablespace_name = 'TEMP' ;
