Many of the early 4th edtion and earlier cards have messed up activation costs in the 'originalCardText' field (such as '1oRooR' on gatherer for 1RR) and also missing colons for almost all of them. These are gatherer errors that I'll need to correct by hand and add to SET_CORRECTIONS (though some may be able to be fixed in an automated fashion if I can determine a pattern to the errors)

Being that these errors are in the originalCardText and not in the oracle 'text' the priority on fixing this issue is much lower

I have a heap more of these sort of changes, which I can supply by set if you like.

For example, a few of the later sets have all the new line characters removed.

Gatherer is so awesome. Like 90% of the project is fixing Gatherer errors, bugs, issues, omissions and missing sets/cards.

I really appreciate @esb your offer to provide more errors, feel free to add them here on this issue, but I'm so not excited to fix them all :(

Bottle of Suleiman (Arabian Nights) is correct on MTGJson. I'm checking 4th edition now.
