Restore the deleted text "0.5 mm2"
Explanation:
"イキ" ("stet" in English) means "leave it alone". So in effect, this means that the text "0.5 mm2" should not have been deleted, and should be put back where it was.

agree  humbird: Yes, "イキ" is one of the most familiar editor's mark (made with red pencil in those days prior to the invention of word processor and track-changes).

agree  Maynard Hogg: But why 抹消 instead of トル? BTW, I don't know where konet compiled the list from, but とんぼ vacillates: register/registration mark.
