It looks like this page would benefit from some restructuring. The lead should be shortened to become a concise summary of the rest of the page. Also, I'm not sure that breaking down the content by author/researcher is the best approach here. Check out the talk page of the article for some additional thoughts/suggestions on what to change (if you haven't done that already). (Katya) BikuK (talk) 18:36, 25 November 2019 (UTC)

I agree that the article needs some restructuring and I really like the changes you have made thus far but I also think that the article would benefit from some additional information in the future regarding the relativist view, it seems like the universalist position is discussed more heavily in the article. And if possible try to make the intentions of the article clearer to a wider audience, because most people reading these pages don't know much about linguistics.

 * Definitely agree with Katya that the lead could be shorter!
 * “The theory originates from work by Lenneberg from 1953 which proposes that language structure determines how we perceive the world.” I think Brown and Lenneberg might have first stated the strong version as a hypothesis, from what I'm reading, but it sounds like it has earlier roots.
 * I found a broken link in the citations (#6), so you may want to fix this and check some others!
