Based on your examples we can see that there is a pattern.

1. Henceforth we can ignore the enclosing () if they are present.

2. The initial search should be for

<authority><1 or more spaces><number><colon>

3. If we find a reference of the above form then we can define three following options

a) a hyphen John 1:1-2
b) a semi-colon
c) a number
