mod rewrite for rewriting permalinks

Had problem with showing article pages for nesting categories. Permalink structure: /article/%category%/%postname%/
Example: www.mysite.com/article/parent/chilgd/article-name/2/ opens first page.
Decided to solve this problem by rewriting url in .htacces, like so:
RewriteRule ^article/(.+/)?([-a-z0-9]+)/([1-9]+[0-9]?)/?$ ?name=$2&page=$3 [L]
RewriteRule ^article/(.+/)?([-a-z0-9]+)/?$ ?name=$2 [L]

Hoping to also reduce load on system by preparing GET parameters.

But looks like wordpress is redirecting my request with permalink, which results in first case.
Is it possible to stop wordpress from analyzing url if it gets prepared parameters? Or maybe there is better solution for this problem?
