You can use sort_ships_splits to specify more than one regular expression to use to split by and what string to use to join the char parts back together after sorting. |
This all seems to be working. Thanks. I'm tracing down various ships of different lists and orders, making sure the regexps line up, and then updating, and it all seems to working correctly.

Great! I'll start trying to collect some of my more generic ones, and put them up. (Fun fact: AO3 tags for characters often include the word (Character) after them. Yeah, uh, thanks AO3, I was confused as to what tag that was in the *character* list.)
Then I can put some fandom-specific ones, I guess. That's going to be a bit more subjective, but I guess most people would be okay going to full names, and if not, that's easy enough for them to change without having to deal with the regexp, which is the most complicated part.
