Small bug in pictured hooks

@Evad37: Thanks for writing this, it's very handy! I've found a small bug. When "(pictured)" is removed, the output has an extra space where there's punctuation afterwards; eg Skaill House:

Thanks for the rapid fix! Espresso Addict (talk) 01:58, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I see that the code removes instances of (pictured) or (illustrated) from transclusion, but I searched through a few DYK entries and also found (shown), (featured), and (depicted), as well as some that use multiple words, like (example shown) or (artist's impression depicted). It is probably unwieldy to try to list every possible parenthetical expression that refers to an image or other media, but is there another way to get around this source of potential confusion? --Lasunncty (talk) 08:44, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Problem with text being truncated

At Portal talk:World, one of the items is being truncated. The item is

* ... that [[Femke Bol]]'s time of '''[[2024 World Athletics Indoor Championships – Women's 400 metres|49.17 seconds on 2 March 2024]]''' broke her own [[List of world records in athletics|400&nbsp;m short track world record]]?

from Wikipedia:Recent_additions#8_June_2025. It is displayed as:

{{Hidden begin | titlestyle = font-weight:normal | title = * ... that Femke Bol's time of [[2024 World Athletics Indoor Championships –}}

* ... that [[Femke Bol]]'s time of '''[[2024 World Athletics Indoor Championships –

If anyone can puzzle out this one, that would be helpful. – Jonesey95 (talk) 00:20, 11 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
