I'm not from the U.K. so I'm not sure but I believe the terms are used interchangeably there. However, since the wiki is accessible worldwide, I think for consistency and easier understanding, maybe either only "English actress" or "British actress" can be used?

I feel English refers to someone's actual ethnicity, while British is used to describe someone who was born/raised in the U.K. or has British citizenship. It can get tricky in other instances, though. For example, Sarah Bolger (Aurora) was born in the Republic of Ireland, which geographically is in the U.K. but not part of the U.K., so she would be referred to as an Irish actress, not a English/British actress.
