All output should be run through an escaping function (like esc_html_e() or esc_attr_e()), found '_e'.
The plugin name includes a restricted term. Your chosen plugin name - "WP Editor Widget" - contains the restricted term "wp" which cannot be used at all in your plugin name.
load_plugin_textdomain() has been discouraged since WordPress version 4.6. When your plugin is hosted on WordPress.org, you no longer need to manually include this function call for translations under your plugin slug. WordPress will automatically load the translations for you as needed.
Classes declared by a theme/plugin should start with the theme/plugin prefix. Found: "WPEditorWidget".
All output should be run through an escaping function (see the Security sections in the WordPress Developer Handbooks), found 'apply_filters'.
strip_tags() is discouraged. Use the more comprehensive wp_strip_all_tags() instead.
In footer ($in_footer) is not set explicitly wp_register_script; It is recommended to load scripts in the footer. Please set this value to `true` to load it in the footer, or explicitly `false` if it should be loaded in the header.
Tested up to: 5.5 < 7.0. The "Tested up to" value in your plugin is not set to the current version of WordPress. This means your plugin will not show up in searches, as we require plugins to be compatible and documented as tested up to the most recent version of WordPress.
Missing "License" in Plugin Header. Please update your Plugin Header with a valid GPLv2 (or later) compatible license.
