⚠️ The trap

English 'redactor' is a niche word meaning someone who censors documents. Italian 'redattore' is the common, neutral word for a text editor or staff journalist. No censorship implied.

To say "a person who redacts/censors documents (rare in everyday English)" in Italian:

redattore (correct for editor)
