Please help, I can't do it. :-(

I had a working command:
replace.py -links:User:BinBot/try -fix:datumjav -recursive -allowoverlap

Now I don't wan't to edit the articles containing templates {{szinnyei}} or
{{pallas}} because they are not worth to deal with. I tried to insert
-excepttext:'szinnyei'
-excepttext:szinnyei
-excepttext:{{szinnyei}}
-excepttext:'\{\{szinnyei\}\}'
and so on, and none of them worked, it always edits those terrible articles.
I also tried except instead of excepttext, because the help inside the
replace.py states that. I am a bit confused because
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Replace.py states that only older versions
used except, and my replace.py contains the LockedPage exception, so it must
be the newest according to
http://pywikipediabot.cvs.sourceforge.net/pywikipediabot/pywikipedia/replac…,
but the inside help still says except.

Anyhow, I cannot avoid editing articles with these templates. What would be
the correct syntax?
