- 03:3103:31, 14 July 2024 diff hist −35 Template:Conservatism US Meghan McCain holds liberal views and self-identifies as a Republican liberal. We've established in the past that Republican =\= conservative. "Jr." is not necessary for Buckley, he is mononymously just Buckley. There is no other Buckley to disambiguate him from. current Tags: Mobile edit Mobile web edit

- 16:0716:07, 10 July 2024 diff hist +1,698 Template:Conservatism US footer Bringing footer into closer conformity with the navbox, removing some figures who are not Americans, some who are not notable enough for inclusion, some who are liberal Republicans, and also a few libertarians. Rockefeller Republicanism is a form of Republican politics, but it is by definition liberal, not conservative. Republican =/= conservative. current
- 16:0116:01, 10 July 2024 diff hist −42 Template:Conservatism US Minor national parties are fine, as are any parties that have a real effect on the country's history, but the Law and Order Party only existed in Rhode Island, one of the least consequential states in the union, and it did not exist for long. Not notable enough for this template.

- 04:5004:50, 10 July 2024 diff hist +78 Template:Conservatism US Add protectionism and communitarianism to principles (these are in tension of course with individualism and classical liberalism, which are also included, but this is a longstanding tension within US conservatism, and each has periods of ascendancy from time to time: communitarianism and protectionism in the late 19th century and today, individualism and classical liberalism in the 1920s and again from the 80s to about 2016)

- 20:2720:27, 9 July 2024 diff hist −29 Template:Conservatism US Rem. Dolan due to recentism; he is a conservative bishop, but to what extent he will have a legacy as a thinker is to be seen (I'm not hopeful), he is more notable as a commentator, and in any case there are other notable bishops who are more conservative, like Salvatore Cordileone
- 20:2220:22, 9 July 2024 diff hist −30 Template:Conservatism US Rem. Laffer, a noted economist but a stretch to call him an intellectual; remove nobiliary particle from Jouvenel's name, English is inconsistent on this but some figures are always referred to mononymously without it (Jouvenel, Tocqueville), whereas others always are referred to with it (De Gaulle)
- 20:1420:14, 9 July 2024 diff hist −31 Template:Conservatism US Rem. Repplier, dubious notability. Her article is a stub, and as someone whose academic focus is the early conservative movement in America, I can tell you she never gets discussed as a particularly important figure, even if she held conservative views. Open to being corrected on this if you want to open the matter on talk, but I don't see anything in the scholarship that paints her as notable and central enough for inclusion here.
- 20:1020:10, 9 July 2024 diff hist −43 Template:Conservatism US Rem. Sokal; the Sokal affair exposed sloppiness, but not leftist rot like the grievance studies affair. Sokal might himself be a conservative (I think he's actually libertarian), but in any case he is not an "ideas guy" nor is he notable as a thinker who has contributed to American conservative thought
- 20:0620:06, 9 July 2024 diff hist −125 Template:Conservatism US JB Calhoun might have been personally a conservative, but nothing in his page or that I can find online makes clear how he is relevant as a thinker to this template. Durant is also not notable qua conservative, even if those were his personal views. Maybe add Mortimer Adler for a more explicitly conservative equivalent if you like, though I'm refraining to avoid bloat. Rem. Hoppe, who seems to me a libertarian.
- 19:5819:58, 9 July 2024 diff hist +32 Template:Conservatism US Add Dick Viguerie to activists. The scholarship on the history of American conservatism universally agrees that Viguerie transformed the conservative movement by introducing direct mailing to American political fundraising, substantially increasing the war chests of conservative organizations. He is essentially to the story of the American right.

- 19:4319:43, 9 July 2024 diff hist −482 Template:Conservatism US Trimming commentators per talk page. Some of these are conservative but not notable enough for inclusion, some are libertarians, and some are hard-right non-conservatives. Park is better classed as an activist, Palin is most notable as a politician, Weyrich is best known as an activist. Cleaning up activist list as well. Please discuss on talk before reverting.

- 18:3218:32, 8 July 2024 diff hist −46 Template:Conservatism US Removing two works from the Literature list. "Roots of American Order" is an excellent work, but it holds no special place among the dozens of books Kirk wrote, and he is best represented by the already-included and massively influential "The Conservative Mind." "The Right Nation" is a stub article for a book that is not notable, is not itself a conservative work but a history of the movement from an outside perspective, and a rather unimportant one at that.

- 18:2618:26, 8 July 2024 diff hist +330 Template:Conservatism US Adding to Defunct Parties the Democratic Party, and specifying that it had conservative factions. These are basically non-existent today, so I opted to put it under "defunct," as the amount of conservative Dems today is even more statistically insignificant than liberal Republicans Tag: Disambiguation links added

- 14:4514:45, 8 July 2024 diff hist −26 Template:Conservatism US Rem. Gilley, everything I can find on him seems to show that he is a classical liberal. His participation in an academic controversy isn’t sufficient to grant his inclusion here, and we should avoid including liberals who are currently bedfellows with the right because of mutual anti-leftism.
