That's certainly one level of parsing, and sometimes alk you need, but as the article you posted says, it more usually refers to generating a parse tree. To do that in a natural language isn't happening with a regex.
Thanks for all the explaining. I always wondered why you can't parse HTML since I first saw the Stack Overflow post, when you can take any HTML code you find and write an expression to work against said set of data.
I never understood the word parse to mean understanding and building a structure based on any input.
