In a word,yes! I know that it does say "Edit" once you hover your cursor over the pencil icon. However, as has been said before, the meanings of those icons won't be immediately obvious to everybody. Maybe I'm a bit dense, but if Wikia article pages had looked like that back in 2009 (when I first came across them), I would have just thought, "You can't edit these", and would never have contributed here. I really think that the edit function is too important to be hidden in the second icon on  a menu list.
