Add a note about a shortlist as a whole: what it is for, what to do next. The note is saved with its author and the time. It cannot be edited or deleted afterwards, so a correction is another note. To write about one person, add a contact note with POST /v1/contacts/{contactId}/notes: it is shown wherever that person appears and can be edited.
