MODERATORS
Well it's likely short for "authorities on the subject", i.e. experts.
Probably, I just found the change of wording curious
It's the evolution of the language. One would appeal to an "authority" for an educated opinion. For example the standard fallacy name "faulty appeal to authority," where information is posed as authoritative but is, in actuality, from a layperson.
