In Paris I essentially edit those who use the Force (4)
I believe the answer is:
jedi
'those who use the force' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.
'in paris i essentially edit' is the wordplay.
'in paris i' becomes 'je' ('I' in French).
'essentially' means to look at the middle letters.
The centre of 'edit' is 'di'.
'je'+'di'='JEDI'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for jedi that I've seen before include "Forceful knight" , "Forceful people in films" , "Star Wars warrior" , "Star Wars knight" , "Legendary crimebusters" .)
