There are two main versions of Number 8 in the series: the Sharon Valerii who was on Caprica with Helo, and was renamed Athena, and the Sharon Valerii/Boomer who was a mole on Galactica and who later went back to the Cylons.

Wikipedia lists Boomer/Sharon/Number Eight under Number Eight (Battlestar Galactica). Titling a page "Boomer (Sharon Valerii, Number Eight)" is just as complicated -- too complicated. Perhaps we can make separate pages for the different copies of Number 8, who have different storylines, after all? --Ide Cyan 05:18, 26 April 2007 (PDT)
