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/
