Hello Saif,

https://community.servicenow.com/community?id=community_question&sys_id=b37200d6db80a3408e7c2926ca96...

OR:

Make ISLOATED SCRIPT CHECKBOX : False 

function onLoad() {
 
  
 
    //pick list icon does not have an id
    //get all of the A tag elements in the document
    var refs = document.getElementsByTagName("a");
    if (refs) {
      for (var i=0; i < refs.length; i++) {
        var ref = refs<i>;
        var inner = ref.innerHTML;
        //check for the name of the icon image
        if (inner.indexOf("pick_list.gifx") > 0){
          ref.style.display = 'none';
        }
      }
    }
}

Please mark as Correct Answer/Helpful, if applicable.
Thanks!

Don't know if you ever solved this, I used a UI Formatter / UI Macro solution - since you cannot / should not use DOM manipulation in client scripts this UI Macro overcomes this (just add the formatter to the form) and this targets JUST the short_description...

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<j:jelly trim="false" xmlns:j="jelly:core" xmlns:g="glide" xmlns:j2="null" xmlns:g2="null">
<g2:evaluate>
var target = "lookup." + current.getTableName() + ".short_description";
</g2:evaluate>
<div id="${ref}" /><!-- this is required to hide the formatter otherwise there is a blank space -->
<script>
document.getElementById("${ref}").parentElement.style.display="none";
var element = document.getElementById("$[target]");
if (element !== null) element.style.display="none";
</script>
</j:jelly>
