- Getting Really Edgy: On the Edge of the Edge (2016, background): “…locality violations, implementing this through the *-marking mechanism that goes back to Chomsky (1972), where tj in (iib) is a *-marked element that is deleted in PF. (For recent applications of the *-marking mechanism, see e.g. Hornstein, Lasnik, and Uriagereka 2003, Lasnik 2001, Merchant 2008.)”
- Contrast and Island Sensitivity in Clausal Ellipsis (2014, methodology): “Although the current proposal remains agnostic as to how to account for (ii), the reader is directed to Thoms (2011) for a possible alternative to Merchant (2008).”
