Can't do that or it just won't match those terms at all. The left side needs to match exactly with what was downloaded from Shelfari. There could be an issue with the commas in the name though, I'll have to double-check that when I'm off work.

On the other hand this is the Aliases I get from the shelfari
So stuff only on the left side, nothing on the right. |
In the default alias file, you'll *never* get anything on the right of the | symbol; only if you make it yourself or if one was available on my server (aliases don't come from Shelfari at all).
In the case of this book, where there's so many (aka whatever)'s in the names, the automatic split won't work (which is what caused that error). The duplicate errors you can usually ignore.
A lot of the issues on this one are caused by the person who edited Shelfari and decided that having 'Nickname (aka THEIR FULL NAME)' for every single character was a good idea...
If you go through and edit the aliases to look more like this (feel free to copy/paste this bit as a starting point), it should work:
Code:
Rand (aka Rand al'Thor, Car'a'carn, Dragon Reborn, Chosen One, Coramoor)|Rand al'Thor,Car'a'carn,Dragon Reborn,Chosen One,Rand
Mat (aka Matrim Cauthon)|Matrim Cauthon,Mat
Perrin (aka Perrin t'Bashere Aybara)|Perrin t'Bashere Aybara,Perrin
You should turn off the automatic split as well.
If I get a chance later, I'll throw one together and put it on the server anyway.

Huh, interesting. How far off are the highlights? The offset might be different for yours (making it that much more difficult to figure out lol).
