Denotes something is correct in a text even though it doesn't appear so (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sic

(Other definitions for sic that I've seen before include "Urge to attack" , "Word to call attention to a quoted mistake" , "(Of quoted word) exactly so" , "It calls attention to a quoted mistake" , "Printing term to denote accuracy though it appears otherwise" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
