"Anyone can edit" is a poor, reductionist and inaccurate slogan with negative connotations. I don't think that the idea behind "good authors are always welcome" can be expressed in a way that doesn't have the problems that I have enumerated; as long as you're referring to _people_, rather than their contributions, it will always come across as condescending and judgmental.
"Good contributions always welcome" ?
(the wording is clunky)
Good *edits* are always welcome?
"Improvements are..."?
I think this is too introvert. Is the strapline for editors or outsiders?
How about something along a slightly different track: "Internet wisdom made accessible"
