Describe the bug When preceded by a parenthesis, "Her" is deleted and not replaced with "They".

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to https://onezero.medium.com/wikipedia-doesnt-know-what-to-do-with-almost-famous-people-f4776193488c
  2. Scroll down to "Of course, YouTubers aren’t the only ones..."
  3. See "Yet another article for a Puerto Rican vocalist was so lacking in notable information that one editor believed they may not even exist. music was available on Spotify, but no other major news sources about their were found. )"
  4. Click on "Show changes" to see that the word "Her" was deleted.

Expected behavior Every deletion should have a corresponding insertion. I expected "(Her" to be replaced with "(Their".
