--> title "Pyjama Verse Anthology"
but on series "Technomage" https://archiveofourown.org/series/1779154
--> title "An Assist Anthology" ( which is the title of Part 1 of the series)
The 'Make anthology from web page' feature only looks for story URLs in the page given. It doesn't do any further parsing on it. (Which is why it can work on a wide spectrum of different pages.) But it also means that it doesn't actually know that you've asked for a specific series.

FFF uses the series name for the anthology only if the series metadata entry is the same for all the books. The first book in Technomage has "2020 LDWS" for it's series value and "Technomage" for it's series01.

I'm not immediately thinking of any reasonable way to check the numbered series entries, but I'll ponder it. I can already foresee that you could get a series name you didn't expect if all the requested stories were members of the same two series. Like a series list for a) 'This show' and separate series list for b) 'This show, season 2' where 'b' is a subset of 'a'.

Hmmm. That was requested a couple months ago and I gave a somewhat flippant answer.

But since it's been requested twice now, I will at least look into it. I've accommodated stranger things.
