That would be me! It drives me nuts that it is repeated so often. Joseph Swan and others had patents earlier. Edison made the first commercially successful lightbulb light bulb, but that isn't the same a 'inventing' it.
Incandescent light bulb - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In addressing the question "Who invented the incandescent lamp?" historians Robert Friedel and Paul Israel list 22 inventors of incandescent lamps prior to Joseph Wilson Swan and Thomas Edison.

Q: How many doctors does it take to screw in a light bulb?
A: That depends on whether it has health insurance
