Want to censor out the remark in parentheses?

Done.

Nit: I don't mind which quotation marks you use but please be consistent :)

[Sebastian Noack, 2015/02/24 17:19:23]

Done.

isgnores => ignores

[Sebastian Noack, 2015/02/24 17:19:23]

This has already been fixed by the previous changeset.

sperate => separate
