Declarative, functional, imperative, stack-based, array-based, etc is a description of the language itself, or rather the primary computational abstraction; DSL is a description of its usecase and purpose. The opposite is a general-purpose language. The two concepts are orthogonal.

For example, your Wikipedia page defines regexes as also a declarative language, and yet it is also the quintessential DSL.

And in terms of it's domain... SQL has a very a restricted domain it was meant for, and is generally used for. You could argue its domain has expanded slightly with things like LINQ, but it's clearly wrong to describe it as an alternative to say python, or c#, as a language, in purpose or usage.
