If you say "I edit the Wall Street Journal" it means something quite different from "I edit Wikipedia."
Exactly. However, if the Wall Street Journal writes "Daniel Smith is a Wikipedia editor", what do you think it means? What do you think they mean? How do you think most people interpret it?
Rename "editors" to "writers" or "contributors".
Any renaming we do is unlikely to affect the practices of the Wall Street Journal.

So if we refer to our article writers as writers instead of editors, the WSJ will continue calling them editors? I have my doubts.
