Hello,
is there a possibility to adjust the field?
It is confusing to some employees, who think work notes is only meant for themselves rather their whole team.
Cheers,
Simon

There is a Client script used for this:
Modify Work notes Label
yourinstance.service-now.com/nav_to.do?uri=sys_script_client.do?sys_id=24ac15175b123300ac18290291f91a4f
Here you can see the label is coming from translated message:
You can adjust the message by adjusting or adding a Message as follows:
(So leave the Key as is and change the Message. Do this for each language you have).
Another option is to change the Client script directly.

It should also work for agent workspace, as the script mentions:
else /* For agent workspace, service portal, angular mobile app */
translatedMsg = getMessage('{0} (Private)', g_form.getLabelOf('work_notes'));
Which uses getMessage as well.
Have you tried clearing the cache for ServiceNow with cache.do in the Application navigator and clearing the browser cache?

Hi Willem,
thanks for taking the time. It works now, even with "Isolate Script" on. I just had to wait for a bit longer.
Cheers,
Khar

Hi Medha,
could you copy your query here?
It should be something like this: yourinstance.service-now.com/sys_ui_message_list.do?sysparm_query=keySTARTSWITH%7B0%7D%20(Private)&sysparm_view=
Also:
Can you find the clientscript:
Modify Work notes Label
yourinstance.service-now.com/nav_to.do?uri=sys_script_client.do?sys_id=24ac15175b123300ac18290291f91a4f
?
