Non significant coverage at and  (they mention the term twice and once respectively. Cannot find any other verbatim usage. Suggest merging/redirecting to eliminative materialism if anything can be salvaged. Darcyisverycute (talk) 13:50, 3 December 2023 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read!

 * Delete: Well, nom is right that we could possibly redirect this, were there anything worth saving here, but there really isn't. The sources are marginal and deletion is clearly the best option. Chiswick Chap (talk) 16:03, 10 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to eliminative materialism - couldn't find many secondary sources which give revisionary materialism much depth - there are some uses by Patricia Churchland and uses of "revisionary physicalism" by John Bickle but these are really more primary sources providing original arguments. The term does have some mentions in the context of eliminative materialism in secondary sources though, including in the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy (, see also ). Probably worth a mention at eliminative materialism at least. Shapeyness (talk) 20:41, 12 December 2023 (UTC)
