Return Value

According to the current naming practice of disambiguation on Wikipedia, the page title with disambiguation part is like: Politics (Aristotle). Note there is a space before the left bracket. However, for the sake of compatibility, especially on the Wiki sites outside Wikimedia Projects, the method also handles the following cases

• Politics(Aristotle) – Missing, or extra whitespaces before the bracket.
• 政治学 （亚里士多德） – Full-width left bracket instead of half-width one.
