@ -982,7 +982,7 @@ With the introduction of Segregated Witness, transactions have two identifiers,
The traditional +txid+ is calculated in exactly the same way as with a nonsegwit transaction. However, since the segwit transaction has empty ++scriptSig++s in every input, there is no part of the transaction that can be modified by a third party. Therefore, in a segwit transaction, the +txid+ is immutable by a third party, even when the transaction is unconfirmed.

Therefore, in a segwit transaction, the +txid+ is immutable by a third party, even when the transaction is unconfirmed.
The +wtxid+ is like an "extended" ID, in that the hash also incorporates the witness data. If a transaction is transmitted without witness data, then the +wtxid+ and +txid+ are identical. Note than since the +wtxid+ includes witness data (signatures) and since witness data may be malleable, the +wtxid+ should be considered malleable until the transaction is confirmed. Only the +txid+ of a segwit transaction can be considered immutable by third parties and only if _all_ the inputs of the transaction are segwit inputs.
