Editorial control is what we do everyday in deciding what stays in our out. Censoring would be to delete all mention of a specific item including systematically deleting any reference or access to the subject matter. Censorship is not continuing to provide easy access to information or images while not forcing it on everyone. Read Farenheit 451 for (albiet extreme) real censorship - or other efforts in the past to systemically burn books to remove them from the library and prevent all access. Limiting access is often called censorship but is not.
What you are pointing to are the different levels of censorship. This discussion may involve a proposal of low-level censorship but it is censorship none the less.
