:::@] Looking at the code a bit more, I think it was the semicolon that was messing it up since as the code treated that as the start of a new line.

::::I doubt it's the colon, because the code uses it as a splitter and then it would crash on every other line. I debugged it live and those three lines is the one it stopped on and crashed in a regex search. With it changed, it's fully running now. That said, I did not read that deep into it. -- ] 21:51, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

:::::@] I haven't actually run it, but from my interpretation of the code it's crashing because it split the line at the semicolon, assumed everything after the semicolon was the regex at the beginning of a new line, and then choked on trying to parse that. It doesn't fail on every other line because the text after those semicolons is a valid regex. <span class="nowrap">--] (])</span> 15:20, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
::@] OK, sorry about that. Thanks for the info. I won't make edit requests to the blacklist with HTML entities in future. There's an editnotice for the blacklist that says "Do not add wikilinks to this list. The bot is very syntax sensitive.". Maybe we could change it to "Do not add wikilinks or HTML entities to this list. The bot is very syntax-sensitive.". I imagine they'll probably be lots more people who'll notice the dash issue in the notes and want to add proper dashes, so I think a notice like that would be very helpful. Maybe we could add a notice about it on the blacklist talk page as well. ] (]) 20:55, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
