: Need to exercise caution here, as 'editor' could suggest a higher position than a 'rédactrice' (necessarily) is. (Your 1st ref. is a red herring) / Several good alternatives have already been suggested.

: "Editor" could also be interpreted as "Editeur/Relecteur". I think your original choice of "copywriter" is still the best.

Fait tres bien l'affaire à mon sens. Un rédacteur n'est pas un editor, mais bien quelqu'un qui pond de la copie.

Oups, J'ai mis Highest par erreur. Je suis en général moins arrogant dans mes certitudes. Mettons que je suis quasiment sûr d'avoir raison sur ce coup.

: Confidence 5 ??? ... Un "rédacteur" n'est pas un "écriteur" (writer)... aussi bien si "rédiger" signifie "écrire"...

mah, si un rédacteur est un écriteur (Rédiger signifie écrire après tout) Ce que j'en dis c'est pour causer.

: Yes, or I even wondered about 'journalist' — depends a bit in just what sort of publication this is.

Jacqui Audouy
: "Editorial" and its French equivalent seem to be used almost exclusively to refer to original copy; another clue is the 'either/or' as editor would be ranked above translator (wrongly or rightly!)

Pourquoi pas « author » pour « rédactrice »? Ça dépend du type de rédaction.
Peer comment(s):

Tony M
: Apart from the unfortunate typo in your headword answer, I think 'author' rather tends to connote a 'romancier' etc., rather than a simple copy-writer, which may be all this 'rédactrice' is
