Interested in unified cognitive modeling^[1] for progressing science - the coupling of ontologizing and epistemizing.

Areas of interest

My academic and Wikipedian areas of interest overlap in these areas

• General
  • Science, especially soft science - its narratives and rhetoric
  • Philosophy
  • Mathematics, and Logic
  • Physics - their unifying approach (and language) more so than their theory
• Particular
  • Cognitive science, psychology
  • Computer engineering & Computing science

Wikipedian

• Consistency and relationships across articles, via
  • WP:Categorization, especially in general categories that span multiple fields of study
  • WP:Disambiguation, which can be viewed as a categorization of sorts, e.g., as uses of a concept
  • MOS:ALSO, for related articles
• Correcting minor details related to academic interests, including WP:Templates

Note that while I am an OK academic writer, and great presenter, I am a poor editor - working on it.

Academic

• Progressing science
  • epistemizing (coupled to ontologizing), although I am not a formal philosopher
  • WikiSilo Theory^[2][3][4] (that interacts with existing MediaWikis)
    • Think of it as a scientifically focused Wikipedia on version control - disciplining theory exploration, and synthesis.
    • Every version is a coherentizing wiki based on a single scientific approach
    • Thus, Wikipedia can be seen as a single network of incoherence (as a mirror of soft science), while WikiSilos form a progressing network of coherence
• Unifying science
  • Ontologizing (coupled to epistemizing) - as I am a formal Cognitive scientist
  • Using my areas of expertise (Unified Cognitive Modeling) as case study
• Writing a about the language necessary for progressing and unifying science^[5]
• David Pierre Leibovitz publications indexed by Google Scholar

Background (relevant to editing)

• Old career: Computer engineer, worked at Nortel for 13 years, rose in responsibility to senior architect, and manager. Lots of presentations, teaching and technical specs. Excellent systems analysis, and unifying design of highly complex problems
• New career: Cognitive science, applying engineering skills for unifying
