*'''Delete''' I don't think it's been established that being president of this guild means probable notability and current sourcing found isn't good enough. The guild merged to form the "Society of Editors" in 1999 [http://www.societyofeditors.co.uk/page-view.php?pagename=History] if it's talking about the correct one. Current president doesn't have an article, there's an entry for his name but I don't think it's him. The "Immediate Past President" doesn't have one either.
