_Always_ include the editor. Almost every article that goes into the
paper goes through a "Snip-Snap" "Content-enhancement" and such phases,
with most of the times, the article or the content ending up exactly
the way the author did _not_ want it to be.

It may not be apparent in most general knowledge articles as the
editor would have enough knowledge, but in "specialized" "technical"
topic, it is quite.    

I am not saying that the author is not wrong.. It is just that most of
the times the editor is the main contributor to such mistakes.
