Google: No Real Changes To In-Depth Articles

Google Under Water

A week ago we reported that the in-depth articles in the Google search results mysteriously went away. I asked Google about it and they told me they really didn't - Google's statement was "When relevant, we do and will continue to surface high-quality evergreen content as part of the overall search results."

Google did make a code change to how they display them in the source code of the search results page but not much else.

But I am not sure - they did seem to change based on what we see.

Moz is still showing them at 0%, my other contacts rechecked all their data, both by machine and with humans looking at the raw examples, and they are completely gone - no in-depth articles are showing according to them.

Even Glenn Gabe posted they changed:

Here are some older tweets:

So I am a bit confused - did they go away?
