User talk:Platypus222/Archive 1

I have new messages ( last change  ). I don't have much to talk about but here goes:

Annoying...
You (in other words, me) know what's annoying? When you get some idiots who don't know what they're doing on Wikipedia. They make some articles with horrible spelling and grammer, two spaces after every sentence, and completely horrible linking. They don't check if a link exists before they make it, they don't look for it under different names, they don't understand Wikipedia syntax, etc. They just write it. Also, it sounds crappy. Know what else? When someone else reads it and DOES NOTHING! I just spent over two hours going through this idiot's Golden Sun character pages and fixing all of the above errors (I'm sure I missed a few minor ones). I then had to go to the redirect pages someone else created for the idiot's links and find everything that linked there and fix those links. I then went here to get them deleted. I mean, I know how big Wikipedia is, but I wish it looked as good as Memory Alpha. They run one tight ship over there. People shouldn't be allowed to edit if they don't know how to spell, use commas, spacing, or, most importantly here, Wiki format. I mean, I'm not perfect, but seriously! 06:00, 22 July 2005 (UTC)

Spaces?
Isn't it correct to have two spaces after each sentence?

Hi! Thanks for all of the useful links. I am also sorry for leaving the tabor address in the article- As you can see, I obviously stole it from their site. Thanks again! Chkiss 02:14, 18 November 2005 (UTC)

It used to be, and is still sometimes considered proper form in business correspondence. However, in most cases it is now considered archaic.

The double spaces were used because some letters are wider than others in a fixed font, and could make for ugly kerning. Proportional fonts (Adobe, TT) changed all that, and two spaces after a sentence are no longer necessary or common. SicTim (talk) 14:27, 22 March 2009 (UTC)

Editing user pages
The only changes I'll ever make to a user's page: 1) reverting vandalism; and 2)fixing links. Yours was #2. I'm always very careful about it. --nihon 21:44, 7 December 2005 (UTC)

reverting Mnemonic page
''I am curious as to why you reverted about three and half month's worth of edits in Mnemonic the other day. There were several good contributions to that page over that time and I see no reason to delete it all out (rather than manually going through and deleting unneeded information, for example). There may have been many needed edits that you thoughtlessly removed. I would simply revert your reversion, but I assume you have a reason and I would like to hear it first. Thanks.-Platypus Man | Talk 06:34, 16 February 2006 (UTC)''
 * Hi Platypus222. That revert was a mistake on my part and I'm not sure how it happened.  I went and set it back to version '00:09, 11 February 2006'.  It's very strange, the October version wouldn't even have been available for me to select on the history page.  [[Image:Monkeyman.png]]Monkeyman 14:13, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
 * I added back the edits from the last few days as well. Thanks for bringing this to my attention and also thanks for assuming good faith!   [[Image:Monkeyman.png]]Monkeyman 18:09, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

Ethan Rom
Has the origin of his name been confirmed by the writers, or is this fan speculation/original research? Jtrost (T | C | #) 23:26, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Seeing how it's pure speculation, I don't think it's appropriate for Wikipedia. Jtrost (T | C | #) 13:31, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

Image Tagging Image:Dave Mordal.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Dave Mordal.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use GFDL-self to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Image copyright problem with Image:RJ_Reynolds_High_School_Front.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:RJ_Reynolds_High_School_Front.JPG. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

New Video Game Article
Hey! I saw that you created a new video game related article- consider joining the Computer and Video Games WikiProject! I have added your article to the list of new articles, and attributed it to you. --PresN 17:14, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

Redirects
It's no big deal, but you can't get redirects to go to a specific part of a page (like Final Fantasy III DS). It really doesn't hurt anything, but it doesn't accomplish anything either. Just figured I'd tell you... -Platypus Man | Talk 23:51, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

In response to your Trivia Cleanup talk post
If you feel the need, I suppose the trivia (that is useful at least)..should be re-added to Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children. Just remember, Wikipedia isn't against trivia, but just limits them to small sections. If you can put the trivia in the article itself (in other sections), then go ahead. Remember: Wikipedia isn't a fan's guide to every little note (minor or major), it's an encyclopedia. The Cleanup project isn't for removing each and every trivia section, just making them smaller. I think you somehow think Wikipedia should list everything interesting about a subject, but that's not the case. If you open a normal paper edition of an encyclopedia, you won't find endless trivia sections on subjects there. A web version is no different. If you happen to see a trivia section just removed (and no important information put back in the article), report it as vandalism. I hope this helped, and cleared things up. RobJ1981 04:33, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Well the policies for trivia cleanup aren't set in stone, and could be changed if needed. People don't always follow the policies anyway. If a person doesn't read the policies (which I'm sure many don't...), then they just edit trivia how they like. That's something I can't control, nor wish to. If people vandalize by removing trivia that shouldn't be removed, it should be reported. I agree somewhat on your note on my talk page of: If something is complete speculation, coincidental, or irrelevant to the article at hand, then I see no problem with deleting it. I'll try to update the trivia cleanup policies and make it improved so at least some problems are solved. I know the users of the project, read the policies more... so that will at least help them out with trivia issues like the one that happened at the Final Fantasy page. RobJ1981 05:33, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

Request for Adminship
It is my regretful task to inform you that I have closed your request for adminship early as unlikely to achieve consensus. Please do not be discouraged; a number of users have had their first RfA end without consensus, but have been promoted overwhelmingly in a later request. Please continue to make outstanding contributions to Wikipedia, and consider requesting adminship again in the future. You may find Guide to requests for adminship helpful in deciding when to consider running again. If I can be of any help to you, please do not hesitate to ask.

Winston-Salem slang
Yes, I agree that the slang section doesn't really belong in the Winston-Salem, North Carolina because it's not really all that "encylcopiedic", but a number of editors keep adding that info in over and over. So all I'm saying is that you'll probably receive lots reverts from those editors and those sympathetic to them. If they can find a source for that stuff, then I'm fine with it. Just a heads up. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Gooday.1 (talk • contribs) 15:01, 25 January 2007 (UTC).

Gary Chalmers
There is no need to move Superintendent Chalmers to that page based on ONE one-off joke. He is well known as Superintendent Chalmers and his page should stay there. See: Comic Book Guy and Bumblebee Man. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Scorpion0422 (talk • contribs)

License tagging for Image:Bh4j.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Bh4j.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

Image:Hefny.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Hefny.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

 * 1) Go to the image description page and edit it to add , without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 48 hours after this notification, per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Abu badali (talk) 18:19, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

"You lost your chance."
I lost my chance, eh? Your one opinion isn't "clear consensus" for anything, even if I didn't show up within your set time limits. You lost your chance to gather consensus. 1ne 07:07, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

 * No, it doesn't seem that I'd like to show up and change the 'consensus'; it seems that you based 'clear consensus' on two IPs. 1ne 22:33, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

It is my opinion that because there wasn't much discussion to begin with, a person coming in to oppose is better late than never. People aren't capable of keeping on top of everything, and plus varying opinions are always good. Could you consider re-opening the discussion? —Signed, your friendly neighborhood MessedRocker. 02:52, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Also, here is something I suggest you read: Consensus can change. —Signed, your friendly neighborhood MessedRocker. 02:53, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

A question about Image:Metroid Justin Bailey.png...
Wow! A message regarding an image that's not from a boilerplate template! Weird, huh? :-)

Seriously, though, I just have a quick question: you reverted the image Image:Metroid Justin Bailey.png to an earlier version. I certainly don't want to get into an fight over this, so I won't push the matter, but I'm curious as to why. The problem with the original image, as discussed briefly on Talk:Nintendo Entertainment System, is that it actually does a pretty lousy job of capturing what the picture looked like on most television sets: the palette and aspect ratio is off. Again, I'm not looking to pick a fight, and I'm not even questioning your action, per se, but I am curious about your reasons. Thanks! – Sean Daugherty (talk) 05:44, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, that's just it, really: "downgrade" is pretty much in the eye of the beholder. To be sure, the image does look crisper and the colors less washed out in the original image. The problem, though, is that the game was developed with the limitations of NTSC video in mind. The scanlines and overall muddiness were acknowledged and usually expected by developers (particularly the case regarding later games where those elements were deliberately manipulated). I guess it's ultimately a question of whether or not the clarity of the image is more important than recreating the precise manner in which it would have been displayed on release. And I don't mean that to sound dismissive at all: clarity may well be a more important factor, depending on the context.
 * Anyway, I won't revert the image because I really don't think it's my place to do so. Others who have actually spent more time over at the Metroid article are undoubtedly more qualified than I to judge. I only uploaded the replacement in the first place because I was working with the ROM image to grab a replacement screenshot of the image used in the Nintendo Entertainment System article, and figured I'd grab the JUSTIN BAILEY shot at the same time. It honestly didn't occur to me that anyone would object in the first place, or I'd have asked around first. My apologies. – Sean Daugherty (talk) 06:52, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Whoever vs whomever
Here we have a choice between "whoever" and "whomever". "Whomever" is the form used for an object -- but here, for the clause, we need a subject. "Whoever" is the nominative form, and so will function as a subject -- and the clause then reads "whoever painted it." Also, see the usage note for who.

Image source problem with Image:SuperBowlXXXVII.png
Thanks for uploading Image:SuperBowlXXXVII.png. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

PNG v JPG
Hi! I noticed the tag added today to Quake III Arena q3dm0.png, and was just wondering why it was attached to that image. Is it just a preference for JPGs over PNGs? As a test, I ran a quick comparison on the image in question between the original PNG format and a copy saved in high-quality JPEG format, blowing up a section of it to more clearly see if any noise had crept in. The resulting image does show some noise/artifacts, particularly clear when screen brightness is increased. Huwmanbeing ☀  ★  20:25, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:BYSLogo.png
Thanks for uploading Image:BYSLogo.png. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

 * That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
 * That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

The following images also have this problem:

Help
Seeing your work on the image, Image:Isaac_Brawl.png, I have to say I am quite impressed. Could you possibly create a nice background for Image:SSBB Opening Sprites.png? It is in dire need of one. If you can, thanks a bunch. If you cannot, please tell me, as I need to find someone who can. Cheers! --haha169 (talk) 04:48, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, I wanted a nice backdrop for the image, since it looks really awkward like that. Do you have software that allows you to create appropriate vector images or cliparts? (see the very beginning of this video for an example of what I'd like it to be. If you can't, than thanks anyways. But please consider it - as you said it yourself: Authenticity would probably win. Thanks! --haha169 (talk) 23:04, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Re: this edit summary; policy and arbcom decision have supported the removal of images which lack fair use rationale for a specific use. It's not a question of being hasty.

Request to move article Jeffrey Rowland (webcomics) incomplete
You recently filed a request at Wikipedia:Requested moves to move the page Jeffrey Rowland (webcomics) to a different title - however your proposal is either incomplete or has been contested as being controversial. As a result, it has been moved to the incomplete and contested proposals section. Requests that remain incomplete after five days will be removed.

Please make sure you have completed all three of the following:

 * 1) Added    at the top of the talk page of the page you want moved, replacing "NewName" with the new name for the article.  This creates the required template for you there.

brown recluse bites are not medically "provable"
It's simple enough. NO doctor can diagnose a brown recluse bite from its symptoms. Only an arachnologist, with the spider in hand, can confirm a bite. I'm betting that Mr. Rowland does NOT have the spider that bit him - meaning that while that may be a necrotic wound, the odds that it is from a brown recluse are about 100/1. Let's put it this way: unless the examining physician RULED OUT pyoderma gangrenosum, bacterial infections by Staphylococcus and Streptococcus, herpes, diabetic ulcer, fungal infections, chemical burns, toxicodendron dermatitis, squamous cell carcinoma, localized vasculitis, syphilis, toxic epidermal necrolysis, sporotrichosis, and Lyme disease (all of which are MORE COMMON sources of necrotic wounds), then there is no way that anyone can claim that was a recluse bite from its symptoms alone. When it comes to spider bite diagnoses in the absence of a spider, doctors are no more reliable sources than any other non-expert. Which is to say, they are not reliable at all. It's a shame, and it comes as a surprise to people (who doesn't want to trust their doctor implicitly?), but it is true. Dyanega (talk) 22:38, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

Here's a chunk from the most recent paper on brown recluses :

"“Spider bite” is an oddly comforting diagnosis for patients with skin lesions (Benoit & Suchard 2006). It becomes a badge of courage that they “survived” an encounter with a beast of perceived danger. People who feel they have suffered loxoscelism recount their stories for years, which are then retold by others (Vetter, unpubl. data); this is one of the mechanisms for reinforcing myths in the general public (Difonzo & Bordia 2006). In contrast, one rarely recounts to friends and colleagues a personal bout with a bacterial infection, especially long after the incident.

Patients often put blind faith in their physicians (Vetter, unpubl. data). If a physician diagnoses a brown recluse spider bite, this carries far more weight in the patient's eyes as to the probability of Loxosceles spiders in a local area than does the lifelong collecting experience of regional arachnologists (Vetter & Isbister 2008). Physicians knowingly work in an environment with accepted uncertainty (Montgomery 2006); however, patients feel that physicians work in a world of absolute knowledge."

There is a long and glorious history of doctors getting it wrong, but WP doesn't need to perpetuate it. Dyanega (talk) 01:23, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

CKQB-FM

CKQB-FM (106.9 FM, Jump! 106.9) is a radio station licensed to Ottawa, Ontario. Owned by Corus Entertainment, it broadcasts a Top 40/CHR format. CKQB's studios are located at 1504 Merivale Road in Nepean along with sister station CJOT-FM, while its transmitter is located in Camp Fortune, Quebec.

History
The station was launched on August 31, 1982, by Standard Broadcasting at 540 AM, with the call sign CJSB and a power of 50,000 watts (daytime) and 10,000 watts (nighttime). The station was initially a mixture of MOR music and talk programming, then became an adult standards/easy listening (Music of Your Life) station, and in January 1987, evolved into a soft adult contemporary format with the brand name 54 Lite Rock. The station also aired Top 40 music.

In 1988, the station adopted a mainstream rock format and the brand name 54 Rock. In June 1989, the station's nighttime power was increased from 10,000 watts to 12,500 watts in an effort to extend their coverage area in the west-end of Ottawa. Through all the changes, the station continued to lose money hand over foot.

In 1993, after 11 years without a profit on AM, the station applied to move to the FM band using the available 106.9 frequency that had been occupied by CKO from 1977 to 1989. This was the first time the CRTC had allowed a commercial station in a major market to switch from AM to FM.

The AM station signed off the air at 9 a.m. on August 31, 1994, and the FM station signed on at 6 p.m. on September 1, 1994, with the new brand name 106.9 FM The Bear and changed its call sign to CKQB-FM. Darren Stevens became the first personality to be heard on the new station during a live broadcast from Minglewoods bar in the Byward Market.

In 2004, CKQB was given approval by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission to operate an FM transmitter at Pembroke on 99.7 MHz, to rebroadcast the programming of CKQB's main station in Ottawa and provide better service to CKQB's listeners in Pembroke and in the surrounding west Ottawa Valley area.

The station's music director, Kath Thompson, won the Canadian Music Industry Award for music director of the Year (Major Market) in 2007. On October 29, 2007, Astral Media took control of CKQB as a result of its takeover of Standard Broadcasting.

On December 4, 2008, Astral Media announced that CKQB, along with sister stations CJFM-FM in Montreal and CKZZ-FM in Vancouver, would be rebranded as a Virgin Radio station in January 2009. This was in addition to an existing "Virgin" station, CKFM-FM in Toronto. CKQB featured a "re-energized" rock format, as opposed to a hot adult contemporary format at the other "Virgin" stations in Canada. The Toronto "Virgin" flipped to Top 40/CHR the following year.

The rebranding was completed at 4 p.m. on January 9, 2009. The first song after the relaunch was "London Calling" by The Clash. The station subsequently faced criticism for its inaugural promotional campaign, which featured images of pregnant young women accompanied by the slogan "Lock up your daughters, the gods of rock are now in Ottawa." The station dropped the advertisements after a number of listeners filed complaints.

On August 26, 2009, Astral applied to change Pembroke's repeater frequency (CKQB-FM-1) to 99.9 MHz to mitigate interference due to the approval of Astral's new FM station in Ottawa at 99.7 MHz. The move to 99.9 received CRTC approval on October 14, 2009.

CKQB's studios are located at the broadcasting complex shared by its former sister station CJOH-TV, on Merivale Road in Nepean. On February 7, 2010, CJOH-TV's studios were gutted by a four-alarm fire in the pre-dawn hours; CKQB-FM's studios, located in a separate building, were not affected.

In 2010, following the reformatting of francophone station CFTX-FM as a mainstream rock station, CKQB switched to an active rock format. On February 4, 2011, the station dropped the "Virgin" branding, returning to its former "Bear" identity.

In March 2013, as part of Bell Media's acquisition of Astral Media, Corus Entertainment reached a tentative deal to acquire several radio stations, including CKQB, as part of an overall deal totalling $400.6 million. On January 28, 2014, the CRTC approved Corus's acquisition of CKQB and sister station CJOT-FM. The acquisition was closed on January 31, 2014.

On March 6, 2014, Corus announced that CKQB would drop its rock format by the end of the month, releasing a letter on the station's website promising a "fresh, new direction", with rumours following afterwards that suggested the station was to flip to hot adult contemporary as part of Corus' national "Fresh FM" brand (which only furthered when it had been discovered Corus had registered several web domains with the station's frequency position in it around that same time). The station would run jockless in the meantime, with no on-air staff. On March 28, 2014, at 5 p.m., after playing "Jump" by Van Halen, CKQB began stunting with nature sounds and ambient chill music, while promoting an announcement to come the following Monday, March 31, at 11 a.m., at which time CKQB flipped to Top 40/CHR as ''Jump! 106.9''. The new format would compete primarily with the dominant CIHT-FM, and Rogers' CISS-FM, contrasting their AC-leaning formats with a younger-skewing rhythmic direction, and a "very strong" social media presence.

In September 2018, CKQB laid off its morning hosts Jesse Reynolds and Jenna Mo, and announced that they would be replaced by the syndicated Brooke & Jubal (originating from KQMV in Seattle, Washington). Corus claimed that the change was intended to "maximize how we deliver content to listeners and further position radio brands for the future", but was widely criticized by listeners for replacing the local hosts with syndicated talent from the United States. What would later become Brooke & Jeffery was replaced by Tucker & Maura from sister station CFNY-FM in Toronto in November 2023.

Patrick O'Hearn

Patrick John O'Hearn (born September 6, 1954) is an American multi-instrumentalist, composer, and recording artist.

Known primarily as a bass guitarist and keyboardist, O'Hearn came to prominence with Frank Zappa and co-founded the early 1980s new wave band Missing Persons with several other veterans from Zappa's bands. O'Hearn's musical repertoire spans a diverse range including new-age. In addition to solo albums, he has composed soundtracks for movies and television.

Formative years
Born in Los Angeles, California and raised in the Pacific Northwest, O'Hearn began his professional music career at age 15 when he joined the Musicians Union and began playing night clubs in Portland, Oregon. Upon graduating from Sunset High School in 1972, he moved to Seattle, Washington. There, he briefly attended Cornish College of the Arts and, as well, studied privately with bassist Gary Peacock.

In 1973, he moved to San Francisco, California and soon became involved in the Bay Area jazz scene of that time, playing bass for established artists Charles Lloyd, Joe Henderson, Dexter Gordon, Joe Pass, Woody Shaw, Eddie Henderson, and Bobby Hutcherson. He also collaborated with musicians his own age, including Terry Bozzio, Mark Isham and Peter Maunu.

While on tour in Los Angeles in 1976, O'Hearn met musician Frank Zappa, who offered him a job as bass player in his band—a position he held for over two years. During this period, O’Hearn shifted from the acoustic bass to the electric bass guitar, and also became increasingly interested in electronic music. Zappa encouraged O’Hearn to explore his collection of synthesizers, and also introduced him to the technical aspects of music production, audio engineering, and home studio audio recording equipment.

In 1979, O'Hearn teamed with trumpet player Mark Isham and guitarist Peter Maunu to form Group 87. They only produced two LPs—Group 87 in 1980, and A Career in Dada Processing in 1984. Isham and Maunu would appear as collaborators on several of O'Hearn's subsequent solo releases.

1980s and solo career
In 1981, drummer and former Zappa bandmate Terry Bozzio invited O’Hearn to join his emerging new wave band, Missing Persons along with guitarist and fellow Zappa alumnus Warren Cuccurullo and Dale Bozzio, who had performed vocals in several Zappa productions and recently married Terry. O'Hearn shifted from electric bass to synthesizers. Missing Persons recorded three albums for Capitol Records: Spring Session M (1982), Rhyme & Reason (1984), and Color In Your Life (1986). The band dissolved in early 1986; subsequently, O'Hearn joined with former Duran Duran guitarist Andy Taylor and former Sex Pistols guitarist Steve Jones for one album, Thunder (1987), and a brief tour.

O'Hearn's solo career was spurred in large part by former Tangerine Dream member Peter Baumann, who had been conceiving of a new music label that would showcase progressive instrumental music—a niche earlier explored by Group 87. Baumann formed the Private Music label in late 1984, and produced O'Hearn's debut solo album, Ancient Dreams (1985).

O'Hearn followed Ancient Dreams with two more albums—Between Two Worlds (1987), which earned the artist his first Grammy nomination, and Rivers Gonna Rise (1988). O'Hearn began to receive greater airplay on jazz and new-age radio stations. O'Hearn also co-produced several tracks for guitarist Colin Chin's Intruding on a Silence, featuring Mark Isham on trumpet. O'Hearn released his fourth solo album Eldorado in 1989, which blended elements of World Music with warm keyboard textures.

1990s
The next O'Hearn release was Indigo in 1991. Winding up their contract, Private Music assembled a compilation album in 1992 titled The Private Music of Patrick O'Hearn. This album included three previously unreleased tracks titled "Down Hill Racer", "Irene", and "Step".

In 1992, O'Hearn composed and performed the music score for White Sands, a police thriller starring Willem Dafoe and Samuel L. Jackson. The film was directed by Roger Donaldson. Later that year he composed the score to Silent Tongue, written and directed by Sam Shepard and starring Alan Bates, Richard Harris, River Phoenix and Dermot Mulroney.

O'Hearn released Trust in 1995 under the newly formed Deep Cave record label. Featuring contributions from David Torn and former bandmates Terry Bozzio and Warren Cuccurullo, Trust earned O'Hearn his second Grammy nomination. Shortly after the release of his next album, Metaphor (1996), the Deep Cave record label folded. Also released in 1996 was the soundtrack to the film Crying Freeman.

There have been a few various artists albums that O'Hearn has contributed new material to. In 1998, his 12-minute composition "35th Parallel" appeared on the five-artist album The Ambient Expanse. In 2000, his version of a Johann Sebastian Bach piece called "Prelude from Cello Suite No. 1" appeared on the compilation A Different Prelude: A Contemporary Collection. In 2003 his version of the Joaquín Rodrigo composition "Adagio from Fantasy for a Gentleman" appeared on the compilation Adagio: A Windham Hill Collection. This last track can also be found on the various artists compilation Sundown: Windham Hill Piano Collection, released in 2006.

2000s
O'Hearn's next solo project, So Flows the Current (2001), was recorded over a three-year period from 1997 to 2000.

In 2002, cinematographer David Fortney created a film of landscape images paired with O'Hearn music. The result was Timeless - A National Parks Odyssey which was released on DVD in 2002. This also includes a new version of the track "Beauty In Darkness," originally from O'Hearn's debut album.

Beautiful World was O'Hearn's next release in 2003, and it was voted the No. 1 album on the nationally syndicated radio program Echoes. This was followed by Slow Time in 2005.

In 2006, O'Hearn released three recordings via iTunes online delivery only. The first two of these are the soundtrack EP to Sean Garland's short film The Wheelhouse, and the soundtrack album to the Sam Shepard stage play Simpatico (originally recorded in 1994). These were followed by The So Flows Sessions, which is a full-length album of previously unreleased material from the recording sessions in 1997–2000 that produced So Flows The Current.

The next year in 2007 O'Hearn released the CD Glaciation, inspired by images of Earth's Arctic regions. In the summer of 2007, O'Hearn was introduced to singer-songwriter John Hiatt and played bass on Hiatt's Same Old Man album. Hiatt subsequently asked him to join his band and tour in support of the album's 2008 release. O'Hearn continued to tour with Hiatt through 2010 and recorded on his following releases: The Open Road (2010), Dirty Jeans and Mudslide Hymns (2011), and Mystic Pinball (2012).

2010s
O'Hearn's 13th album Transitions was released digitally on August 23, 2011, and on CD on October 4. It was voted No.1 album of 2011 on the Echoes Listener's Poll.

In December 2013, a various artists album titled Nashville Indie Spotlight was released, which includes a new piece by Patrick O'Hearn and Peter Maunu called "Out of Reach".

His daughter, Rachel, is an electronic musician, performing under the names Chromatiq and Black Sound Effects.

2020s
In October 2020, Patrick O’Hearn released a new track online titled “Rivulet”, which also had a second version titled “Rivulet (Tranquility Mix)”.

Additional music for film and television
Patrick O’Hearn did the soundtrack music for these, without releasing a soundtrack album.

Chrysosplenium

Chrysosplenium (golden saxifrage or golden-saxifrage) is a genus of flowering plants in the family Saxifragaceae. It includes 84 species found throughout the Arctic and northern temperate parts of the Northern Hemisphere. The highest species diversity in eastern Asia, and two species are found disjunctly in northern South America.

They are soft herbaceous perennial plants growing to 20 centimeters tall, typically in wet, shady locations in forests. The leaves are rounded, palmately veined, with a lobed margin and arranged either alternately or opposite, depending on the species. The flowers are small, yellow or yellowish-green, with four petals; they are produced in small clusters at the apex of the shoots surrounded by leafy bracts. Most of the growth and flowering is in early spring, when more light is available under deciduous trees.
