'''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 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, XBOX 360, 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. | |||
== My tasks == | |||
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 [[Battlestar Wiki:Mirrors|mirrors]] for Battlestar Wiki | |||
# Focusing on [[Battlestar Wiki:Think Tank/Audio Project|the audio-version of Battlestar Wiki]] | |||
# Focusing on developing the media repository. | |||
# Adding sound content to the wiki, notably in the form of clips from the series. | |||
# <s>Work on the [http://tgm.firstones.com Babylon 5 wiki]</s> -- I'll be honest, at this point I'm just ready to start my own B5 wiki. Seriously. | |||
# Work on the [http://www.battlestarwiki.org/1999 ''Space: 1999'' wiki] | |||
The red links are obviously stuff I haven't done yet. | |||

** [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support]] - place to beg for donations, which will go towards paying for the hosting and for future upgrades; not that it's a burden, but I want to give people the option to give back in whatever way they feel is best -- and some people like to do it financially. | ** [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support]] - place to beg for donations, which will go towards paying for the hosting and for future upgrades; not that it's a burden, but I want to give people the option to give back in whatever way they feel is best -- and some people like to do it financially. | ||

Obviously, these are future projects I may be interested in starting up as well. Seeing as I am not a deity, I don't forsee juggling all these projects at once. | |||
