I think you're right with the tags. I have to redo so many of them by hand, that two more won't hurt.
Just one curiosity: I tried using your code-example. As a result I got things like 'Harry Potter Potter' and 'Harry Potter Potter Potter'.... Well, as I said, I'm tagging it by hand. But, thanks nonetheless.

A suggestion is adding a rule whenever you make a manual change as that way you don't need to worry about doing the same one again. It is what I do for character names that I want to be in full and while that is a lot more straightforward(only requires 2-3 variations of the name to be changed to cover all) this should at least save you the trouble from the common changes.

For example if the characters only have first name this:

category=>Harry Potter.*=>Harry Potter Works
characters=>Harry=>Harry Potter&&category=>Harry Potter Works
characters=>Severus=>Severus Snape&&category=>Harry Potter Works

Should ensure it changes them but wouldn't tag incorrectly Harry or Severus from another work though if that doesn't affect you the && part is unnecessary. Do keep in mind it applies in order so if the category changing wasn't before the characters it would have to be "category=>Harry Potter.*" instead.

For the ships/characters this might work. Not sure if you can write to something while using the conditional this way though.

ships=>Harry Potter/Severus Snape=>Harry/Severus
"Harry Potter"=>#characters&&ships=>Harry/Severus
"Severus Snape"=>#characters&&ships=>Harry/Severus

This will off course mean your personal.ini will get pretty big as you add more and more like-to give a random example- adding rules for hundreds of characters but that is inevitable if you want to change info automatically.


Oh and while I am posting, Jimn when using [&&conditionalkey=>regexp] how, if possible, do I add something along the lines of match A OR B? Tried using '\' and ',' to separate them but that seems to be AND.
