Talk:List of phonologists

Untitled

Charles Reiss (and possibly Mark Hale) definitely do not belong to this group. His contributions to phonological theory are minimal and controversial, especially compared to other scholars in the list, all of them well recognized and authors of seminal works in phonology. Brazil and Donegan also probably do not belong in the list. I would also add Grimm, for historical phonology (at least) and Goldsmith for developing and formalizing Autosegmental theory, probably the most influential theory of representation of the last 20 years.
