These are regular expressions I use in Notepad++, they are also usable in Perl.

Pattern to Find Replace by Purpose
\|\s*([^|]+?)\s*> {{Monzo| \1 }} replace inline-monzos in tables #1 (cell definitions in same lines)
<nowiki>\s*\|\s*([^<]+?)\s*</nowiki>&gt; {{Monzo| \1 }} replace inline-monzos in tables #2 (cell definitions on separate lines)
^([!|]) \| \1 remove empty style definitions for table cells
\[\[(\w[^|]+?)\|\1\]\] [[\1]] simplify internal links
<span style="font-size: 70%; vertical-align: super;">(\d+)</span> <sup>\1</sup> simplify superscript for exponents
^(=+)\s*(.+)\s*(\1) *$ \1= \2 \1= downgrade heading structure from (h1, h2, h3, ...) to (h2, h3, h4, ...)
^\|([^\s{}-]) | \1 consistent spacing for table cells (when rows are aligned vertically)
\[\[([- \w]+)_ [[\1  iterative removal of redundant underscores
style="text-align:\w+;" \| ? remove inline CSS style of text alignment in table cells
^([!|])([^-+} ].*?)$ \1 \2 add one space after cell metachar
(<span style="">)+(.+?)(</span>)+ \2 remove nonsense spans Use with caution!
