Mediawiki sections translated as headers except title sections (was: UWC header parser not translating Mediawiki headers correctly)

EDIT: these aren't headers, they are sections. See: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Section

However, the UWC is translating them as headers (a good thing if I can get it to recognize title sections!)

------------------------

The converter is working (after using the UWC exporter to create the files) except for one thing, only h2 and below headers are being converted. The syntax for h2 headers looks like this:

== Header 2 ==

This gets turned into a Confluence h1 tag ... so each header is pushed down a level and h1 isn't recognized. When I convert a file with "= Header 1 =" it is rendered as straight text:

= Header 1 =

Any ideas on how to fix this?

I am clearly not a developer - I finally found where this translation is taking place. The regex was wrong and luckily I have developers that can correct these types of things. The resulting regex was:

Mediawiki.0540-re_title.java-regex=(?s)[^=]?=\s*(.*?)\s*=(?!([=])){replace-with}h1. $1

instead of

Mediawiki.0540-re_title.java-regex=(^|\n)={1}([^=]+)={1}(\n|$){replace-with}h1. $1

Works like a charm now.
