(I only reluctantly added Relationships metadata recently after finding that 7 sites actually do provide 'ship data and a further 13 were dedicated to a particular 'ship and could therefore be considered to have implicit 'ship data.)
I have an entry on the 'wishlist' to figure out a better way for individual site-specific metadata, but it hasn't happened yet.
If you like, I am willing to change the dramione.org adapter to add the theme and timeline data to genre and what you've identified as 'cliche' (and dramione.org calls 'Draco' and 'Hermione' categories) to either genre or characters.
Hmmm. And you've found cover images. Good thing I diff'ed the source, since you didn't mention that.  I'll include that bit either way. Can you give me URLs to a couple stories there with banner images so I can test it? |
I hear you about the category and genre randomness per site. Heck, I've seen it partially with warnings, too. Right now, I've got a separate Calibre library per site.
Don't bother adding the theme and timeline info to genre. That's what I originally did and it's just not as organized as having the info in its own custom column. Totally messed up my subject tags. Don't really fancy cleaning up my Tags every time I download a new story. I'll just keep doing the edits to my local copy. Comparing the source code is much faster and easier than frequent tag clean up. dramione.org actually has ship data for extra ships. Just didn't bother adding that as I prefer just having the main ship.
I've forgotten about the covers. The cover images are more banners than covers. I actually use Generate Cover for the actual calibre covers but I still do like having the banners inside the epub.
Just looked for random fics with images:
