Description
punctuation (specifically , : ; .) can create problems with translation when they are included inside a mathematical expression or a hyperlink. Move these punctuation marks outside the parens. EXCEPTIONS: do not change the punctuation in the case of an image (a line that begins with !), nor inside a math block (which uses $$).
I've done most of the instances in guides but will need to check again (some files were in progress during that work so I skipped till they were finalized). Still to do are files in learning/ and tutorials/
I think this is the regex string I searched with:
[.,;:][\]}\$]
