Crossword solver's correction mark (7)

I believe the answer is:

erasure

(Other definitions for erasure that I've seen before include "Removal" , "Deletion by an act of expunging" , "clearing of tape" , "Process of rubbing out" , "Band with Andy Bell and Vince Clarke, or wipe-out" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
