Don't delete (editor's instruction) (4)

I believe the answer is:

stet

(Other definitions for stet that I've seen before include "Let it stand (editing mark)" , "Ignore crossing" , "Correction-reversing mark" , "Thus, leave spelling unchanged" , "Printer's annotation - let it stand" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
