Another word for Revisionism is Reformism.

Some collected revisionists include: Economist so-called 'Orthodox Marxists' (those who deny the history of socialism and states beyond the dead letter of Marx), the CIA Frankfurt School NATO collaborators, Menshevik Trotskyites, Lefebvre, Kautsky, Bernstein, DSA, etc.
