Claude's (and mine) will work just fine. It won't replace the pipe since it isnt escaped. It will also replace 1 or more instances of any of the 3 characters

I think it will also remove the | character. The main difference is that Ben used the +, which says to replace 1 or more adjacent occurances with null. This should be marginally faster than not using the +, since is does them in groups. But you will probably never notice the difference given the size, data, and speed of the server.
