I've tried reading the documentation about Regex, and it's all gibberish to me. I have no idea what each symbol means or does and the guides I've tried to read approaches the subject as if I'm familiar with similar languages. I just need to know what I can type, and what each things means/represents to remove links like <a href="13th_Black_Crusade" title="wikilink"> with nothing, or a space if needed. I tried reading the Regex sticky on these forums and it's just {[{(^&*^%&^*^*(} to me. Any help would be appreciated.
