Um okay, back to the real point. Does anybody have problems with their Calibre Alphabetic Order sorting?

I was scrolling through my library the yesterday and found authors for example like, i.e: Paige Bell, Anna Bell - That are sorted into the letter A because of their last name, even if my settings say "First, Last" and I even re-did that sorting in their own meta data setting....

I'm stuck.
Is the first One PERSON or 2 people, that have been entered wrong (Calibre uses a & between NAMES. Only Tags use the comma separator )

You say First Last <note there is no comma
Last, First gets a comma

The quality check plugin has 2 parts to get this sorted.
The Authors section to check for those with or without commas
and the FIX section to flip the SELECTED records around the commas
