Joe Beaudoin Jr. (a.k.a. the Wikimoron Previously Known as Joe.Beaudoin) is the webmaster and head wikipedian for the Battlestar Wiki. Much to my chargin, I am the oft-mentioned God that Six refers to almost on an per-episode basis. :-)
Biography
I hail from Vero Beach, Florida, best known to most as victim of both Hurricane Frances and 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 (english) as an administrator. My user name at Wikipedia is Joe Beaudoin Jr..
While I do prefer that you just contact me on my 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 mirrors for Battlestar Wiki
- Focusing on 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.
Work on the Babylon 5 wiki-- I'll be honest, at this point I'm just ready to start my own B5 wiki. Seriously.- Work on the Space: 1999 wiki
The red links are obviously stuff I haven't done yet.
Personal tasks
- Get short stories published.
Completed tasks
- Battlestar Wiki:Standards and Conventions (biographies) - Created out of the need to standardize biographies of cast and crew. Now being implemented on a wider-scale.

- Battlestar Wiki:Vandalism - You know, just in case some Toaster decides to vandalise pages... Look at what they did to the restaurant that Helo and Boomer were in. All that crockery... oh the pain, the pain.
- Battlestar Wiki:Quality Articles - As the name might suggest, this is a project to ID quality pages and develop potential quality pages. The best of the best.
- 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.
