Eyebrows
[edit]At a certain point in the series, his eyebrows change shape. Does anybody know why? Was it easier to draw or express emotions with the new style brows? I was hoping to find something about it in this article under the header: Character: Creation and design but no... By the way... half of that part is about how the creator came up with Spongebob instead of the evolution of Patrick! OXYGENE 7-13 (TALKPAGE) 16:03, 7 May 2016 (UTC)
Using "allegation"
[edit]Could we change the heading "Allegations of homosexuality" to one without the word "allegation"? This word definitely has negative connotations and is even defined by Google as "a claim or assertion that someone has done something illegal or wrong". I was thinking "Controversy," but some of the section isn't negative and is just about his popularity in the gay community. Olsenho (talk) 06:25, 9 April 2017 (UTC)
Origin of the name
[edit]Hey all,
Anyone know why he's called Patrick? There's a genus of sea stars called Patiria...

Semi-protected edit request on 30 November 2022
[edit]![]() | This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request. |
"An obese pink starfish, Patrick lives underneath a rock in the underwater city of Bikini Bottom next door to Squidward Tentacles' moai." Change "Starfish" to "Sea star". "Starfish" arent fish. Any other mention of the word "Starfish" should also be changed to "Sea star". IHateYouAndEverybodyElse (talk) 20:32, 30 November 2022 (UTC)
Not done: Wikipedia's article is at starfish. Meters (talk) 21:47, 30 November 2022 (UTC)
