Agreed; those would get the mark qualifier. If someone tried to erase the pencil marks, it should then get the PSA Authentic Altered label.
If it's a ball-point pen and damages the card, the grade will also suffer compared to one with light pencil marks or felt tip markers that do not damage the surface of the card.
