Good write up. That basically describes the process I normally go through, with a few variations:
- I don't worry at all about using Amazon metadata within Calibre (I didn't even know about the quality check plugin), I do a normal lookup and usually just leave it at that
- After converting the book in Calibre (I usually use the "both" option rather than new, I forget why) I then open it in Java Mobi Metadata Editor or Mobi2Mobi and edit the EXTH 113/504 fields to the proper ASIN (not sure if 504 is even necessary)
- The new version of the builder has a "Search Shelfari" option so I usually don't have to go find it manually
- If your aliases are set correctly, opening the X-Ray panel should work when highlighting words
Sometime soon I plan on doing a set of video tutorials on the whole process, which will hopefully help.
