In late August (either on the 27th or the 28th), Wizards of the Coast (WotC) made an unscheduled update to Gatherer. That update reverted one of the changes from the Edge of Eternities update.
Disclaimer: While I strive for completeness and correctness, I may have missed some changes; my process for archiving and comparing Gatherer revisions is still a work in progress.1
Restored Oracle entries (functional)
With the Edge of Eternities update, WotC had removed the Oracle entries of seventy-six cards, thus removing their official Oracle text.
With this new update, WotC restored those Oracle entries and the corresponding Oracle text.

- Then again, WotC often omit minor changes in their own bulletins, so it’s par for the course. ↩︎
So many special characters 😆
