This would be clearer if worded as "If R1871 contains <oldtext>, then
amend it by replacing that text with <newtext>."
It would be even clearer to write:
Amend rule 1871 (Turns for All) by replacing the text "if e was
turned when it was called" with "if e is turned".
Amend rule 1871 by replacing the text "if e was not standing
when it was called" with "if e is not standing".
There's no need for conditional edits here.
