Did you read the definition at all? I don't think you did. Because the definition doesn't say that.

"a system in which an authority limits the ideas that people are allowed to express and prevents books, films, works of art, documents, or other kinds of communication from being seen or made available to the public, because they include or support certain ideas"

>By your logic any academic paper or book that a publisher turns down is being "censored"

This does not match that definition. Please read the definition.

perhaps the dictionary website is showing you something different than me

Why did you underline half of the definition and pretend that's the whole thing? (hint: the "because" is important)
