Sorry, me again. A bit of a problem I'm having with the new (and wonderful!) ship2chars feature.

Example fic:

http://archiveofourown.org/works/812190

In this story, the pairing is given as John/Rodney. Obviously "John" and "Rodney" as characters is a no-go, especially when the character list already contains "John Sheppard" and "Rodney McKay". So how do I rename the ship before the ship2char activates?

I thought I could fix it by simply adding to replace_metadata:

Spoiler:

 characters=>John=>John Sheppard&&category=>Stargate Atlantis
 characters=>Rodney=>Rodney McKay&&category=>Stargate Atlantis
 ships=>John/Rodney=>John Sheppard/Rodney McKay&&category=>Stargate Atlantis
 ships=>John/Rodney=>John Sheppard/Rodney McKay&&category=>Stargate: Atlantis

But that only caused the output to be a repeat, as in:

Spoiler:

John, John Sheppard Sheppard, Rodney, Rodney McKay McKay

I've reread the relevant wiki pages a few times over again, and I get the impression that the solution should be easy, that I'm overlooking something yet again, but no idea what. (Well, aside from deactivating ships2char for the fics in question, that is.)
