I'm creating a regex pattern that matches exactly the 7 target items using alternation (|). For each item:
1. Email: Escaped dots and plus character
2. Date: Escaped forward slashes in format DD/MM/YYYY
3. Date: No escaping needed for the hyphenated date with month name
4. Phone: Escaped parentheses and plus sign
5. URL: Escaped special characters (/, :, ?, ., etc.) and used & literal since it's not a special regex character
6. Invoice: Escaped forward slashes
7. IPv6: No special escaping needed for colons and alphanumeric characters

I've combined all these patterns with the alternation operator (|) to match any of the target items exactly.
