This affected OSDev Wiki (which lacks an api.php), where after doing the 4 normal pages of Special:AllPages, it would attempt What_do_I_need_to_know_about_SMM-Zig_Bare_Bones" title="This is a special page, you cannot edit the page itself and then What_do_I_need_to_know_about_SMM-Zig_Bare_Bones%22++title%3D%22This+is+a+special+page%2C+you+cannot+edit+the+page+itself" title="This is a special page, you cannot edit the page itself, repeating in an infinite loop. These URLs came from the "Special page" tab (which has that title text). The fix is to stop at quotes, meaning the regex won't match. Quotes in actual URLs will be URL-encoded as %22 so the regex won't interfere with those (see enwiki as an example).
I also translated a comment from Spanish to English and fixed a typo in another comment. I don't know anything about the issue the Spanish comment is referring to, though.
