clean-copy CLI v1.4.2 improves URL → Markdown extraction against real websites:

Changes

  • Strips ARIA/role boilerplate (role=navigation/banner/contentinfo/complementary)
  • Removes MediaWiki maintenance boxes (ambox/ombox), navboxes, edit links and print-only cruft
  • Link-density scoring: navigation-heavy wrappers no longer outrank prose blocks
  • <section> added to candidate containers; hidden elements skipped
  • Prefers JSON-LD articleBody when present (news sites)
  • New live test: Wikipedia extraction verified in npm test
