User talk:DrWestwater

February 2017

There have been two problems identified with this account: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business or other organisation or group, which is also against policy, as an account must be for just one person. Because of those problems, the account has been blocked indefinitely from editing.

If you intend to make useful contributions about some topic other than your business or organisation, you may request an unblock. To do so, post the text {{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy. Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In this reason, you must:

Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Orange Mike | Talk 15:09, 25 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Unblock Request

This user is asking that their block be reviewed:

DrWestwater (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

Unfortunately there are two issues here to be addressed simultaneously. One is choice of user name, which I made to divulge my connection to the topic, thereby attracting editorial content which would improve the article. I did not make this choice to promote the company, and am happy to change my user name.

I think the more important issue is the noteworthiness of the content and how to convey the topic in a neutral manner. As I say, it is my hope to solicit constructive advice on how best to approach the article. I will take a moment here to justify the notability of the topic, and leave open for now the question of how to converge on the content.
The topic originated as original research (as I guess every topic does), which resulted in a PhD (obviously after a committee review). Further scientific and commercial research and development resulted in multiple joint-author publications and patents. This body of literature has been cited hundreds of times^[1]. This technology has been the topic of many invited talks, including:
IEEE Signal Processing Austin Chapter
Paper Presented: Motion Video Processing with the three-dimensional DCT
May 1, 2013 ^[2].
National Association of Broadcasters (NAB)
April 17-22, 2004
Paper Presented: “Digital Video Conversion”
Hollywood Post Alliance (HPA)
February 3-6, 2004
“Subjective Quality Monitoring”
Society of Motion Picture and Television Experts (SMPTE, NY Chapter)
November 15, 2003
Paper Presented: “Digital Format Conversion”
Society of Broadcast Engineers (SBE)
SBE Chapter 15 (New York)
Paper Presented: “Video Format Conversion”
April 2003

The technology has also been selected for use in military applications:
Northup-Grumman Low-Profile Periscope Proposal
Iron Hawk Video Synchronization Proposal

In short, this is a story that has excited scholarly and commercial interest. I hope this story is noteworthy, and worthy of being told.

Notes:

In some cases, you may not in fact be blocked, or your block has already expired. Please check the list of active blocks. If no block is listed, then you have been autoblocked by the automated anti-vandalism systems. Please remove this request and follow these instructions instead for quick attention by an administrator.
Please read our guide to appealing blocks to make sure that your unblock request will help your case. You may change your request at any time.

Administrator use only:

If you ask the blocking administrator to comment on this request, replace this template with the following, replacing "blocking administrator" with the name of the blocking admin:
