etymology of liberism

In Italy, philosopher Benedetto Croce created the term "liberism" (derived from the Italian term liberismo),

This seems to say that before Croce there was an Italian word liberismo, from which Croce made the English word liberism; I suspect that is not accurate. —Tamfang (talk) 01:07, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You're right, it's unclear. Croce coined "liberismo" ("liberism" is the anglicized word). 93.38.68.62 (talk) 15:57, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Use of the "Gadsden flag" to represent Laissez-faire?

When the hovering tool-tip page preview in articles that link to this (Laissez-faire) article (i.e. from Corporatism such as the section here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corporatism#Fascist_corporatism ) the page preview contains the Gadsden "don't tread of me" flag. I don't think this is representative of the article.

I cannot see where this flag is being referenced in the article - I suspect in some HTML "hidden popup hint" as per https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Tools/Navigation_popups#Features whereby the image shown in the preview can be controlled by adding an image hint to the article, in the form of an HTML comment such as <-- popup File:Desired Preview Image.jpg -->.

But this is beyond my editing skills to resolve.

Can someone correct this page? 89.242.207.237 (talk) 11:55, 26 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
