'''Joe Beaudoin Jr.''' (a.k.a. the Wikimoron Previously Known as Joe.Beaudoin) is the webmaster and head [[Wikipedia:wikipedian|wikipedian]] for the [[Battlestar Wiki]]. Much to my chargin, I am the oft-mentioned [[God]] that [[Number Six|Six]] refers to almost on an per-episode basis. :-) | |||
== Biography == | |||
I | I hail from [[Wikipedia:Vero Beach, Florida|Vero Beach, Florida]], best known to most as victim of both [[Wikipedia:Hurricane Frances|Hurricane Frances]] and [[Wikipedia:Hurricane Jeanne|Hurricane Jeanne]] in mid-to-late 2004. | ||
| | |||
When not working as a Media Supervisor at my local Best Buy, I do endeavor to get some work done not only here, but at [[Wikipedia:Main Page|Wikipedia (english)]] as an administrator. My user name at Wikipedia is [[Wikipedia:User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin Jr.]]. | |||
While I do prefer that you just contact me on my [[User talk:Joe.Beaudoin|talk page]], I can be contacted by clicking the "e-mail this user" link in the toolbox, itself being on the left margin of this page. | |||
As for computing, I use a custom built, AMD-64 Debian Linux machine called "Zen". ("Zen" is the name of the computer that ran the ''Liberator'' on ''Blake's 7''.) I did have a Toshiba laptop called "Orac" (yet another ''Blake's 7'' reference), but I no longer have it as I gave the computer to my father for his real estate business. Instead, I have a PowerBook G4 -- swearing off Windows-based machines for good. | |||
I constructed a computer -- calling that one "Orac" as well -- that serves as a Linux based multimedia center, with all my music and movie collections, to be loaded on three 300 GB+ Western Digital hard drives. | |||
I also have an XBox, Playstation 2, Playstation Portable and, yes, a Nintendo 64 (for ''Goldeneye'', otherwise I would've sold it). | |||
P.S. Yes, you can edit my user page. I trust you. Besides, I can always re-edit your edits. | |||

While I really leave all the day to day editing to the contributors, leaving me free to concentrate on major issues (such as policy and so forth, being the "sysop"), I plan to work on the following: | |||
* Work on articles pertaining to the original ''[[Battlestar Galactica (TOS)|Battlestar Galactica]]'' as well as upload appropriate images. | |||
* Create the following policies: | |||
** [[Battlestar Wiki:Image Tagging]] - wikiproject/policy to tag all images added to the wiki, so that they may be categorized in some fashion | |||
** [[Battlestar Wiki:Conflict Resolution]] - policy regarding resolution of disputes between editors; not that this is a problem, but I'd like to get something concrete set up should there be any issues in the future, given the growth of this Wiki | |||
* Work on the following non-policies: | |||
** [[Battlestar Wiki:Community Portal]] - links to outside sites and items related to [[Battlestar Wiki:Wikipedian Quorum]] | |||
** [[Battlestar Wiki:Template List]] - list of all templates available for this wiki | |||
I also plan to import and rewrite some policies from Wikipedia, mainly pertaining to style and the "nomination for administration" guidelines. | |||
The red links are obviously stuff I haven't done yet. | |||
