Bug ID: 65976
Summary: replaceExcept and hyperlink exception
Product: Pywikibot
Version: compat (1.0)
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: General

When using replaceExcept() and the hyperlink exception the exception is too
greedy. A random example from enwiki:
<ref>{{cite web
|url=http://www.tvsquad.com/2010/11/22/the-simpsons-meet-avatar-video/|title='The
Simpsons' Meet 'Avatar' (VIDEO) |author=Miller, Olivia |date=November 22, 2010
|work=''[[TV Squad]]'' |accessdate=2010-11-24 }}</ref>
The replace except treats everything between "ur=" and "'The" as part of the
url. IE
http://www.tvsquad.com/2010/11/22/the-simpsons-meet-avatar-video/|title='The
When in reality only url is:
http://www.tvsquad.com/2010/11/22/the-simpsons-meet-avatar-video/
