A user deleted the notes for this post around 3 and a half year ago but didn't remove to annotated tag. This user hasn't done anything else on Danbooru aside from deleting these notes. So I highly suspect this was done on accident.
For now I replaced annotated with annotation request. If someone else could take a look at the notes that would be greatly appreciated.

It was probably either an accident, vandalism, or the user thinking they weren't needed. I restored the notes, though I wish we could simply undo changes rather than having to use "Revert to" for each note like we can with tags.

It's not really possible. Tags are a list of things that can be added or removed, but a note is plain text that can be edited in different ways.
Example: 0. The picture has a balk cat. 1. The picture has a black cat. 2. In this picture, we see a black cat.
In this example, it's not really a black cat, but actually a balk cat (whatever that is, let's assume it's a thing). The original is a translation of the Japanese note. The first edit changes what they think is a misspelling. The second edit changes the grammar to better match the original Japanese note, but keeps the erroneous "correction" from the first edit. If you now want to correct the mistake in the first edit, you cannot simply undo it and think you end up with "In this picture, we see a balk cat", because the second edit completely alters the content.
It might have been possible with a version handling tool like git, that keeps track of changes between versions rather than the full content of each version. But that's overkill for plain text like this, so changes are usually saved as the full content of each version rather than just the changes between them.
