Correct edition is about people (5)
I believe the answer is:
emend
'correct' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'edition is about people' is the wordplay.
'edition' becomes 'ed'.
'is about' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'people' becomes 'men' (men are people).
'ed' going around 'men' is 'EMEND'.
(Other definitions for emend that I've seen before include "make an improvement" , "Make changes to (a text)" , "Alter to improve (text)" , "Remove faults from" , "Edit; make alterations to a draft" .)
