The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

On Wh-Head-Movement and the Doubly-Filled-Comp Filter (2008, background): “Thus, a word-size wh-element which activates the C-feature will at LF be stripped down to a pure wh-operator whose semantics is similar to a disjunctive operator (see Jayaseelan, 2001 and Bayer, 2004).”
On Headless XP-Movement/Ellipsis (2012, background): “…its core idea if we take a low vP periphery into consideration.17 Assuming that there is a TopP in the vP periphery, along lines proposed by Jayaseelan (2001) and Belletti (2001, 2004, 2009), they argue that VP-ellipsis involves VP-movement to Spec,TopP in the vP periphery rather than in…”
Wh-in-Situ Does Not Correlate with Wh-Indefinites or Question Particles (2007, background): “, Suh 1989) are well-known examples of wh-in-situ languages where wh-phrases are used as indefinites; in addition, Malay (Cole and Hermon 1998, 2000), Malayalam (Jayaseelan 2001), Indonesian, and numerous others fall into this pattern.”
Decomposing the left periphery : dialectal and cross-linguistic evidence (2004, background): “…CP is not actually the semantic device symbolized by the interrogativizer ? as in (21), but rather a disjunctive Q operator which is merged to IP.7 This is essentially what Jayaseelan (2001) suggests on the basis of a detailed investigation of questions and question type complements in Malayalam.”
