For one story (PM'd link as it's adult) I'm having trouble getting rid of the "Mass Effect Big Bang" series without also deleting the "Mass Effect Big Bang 2012" collectiion.

I put the settings in a new library with a fresh personal.ini to check other settings weren't messing with it

[defaults]

is_adult:true

## Copy collections to series
include_in_series:series,collections

include_metadata_pre:
 collections==Mass Effect Big Bang 2012

I'm having trouble getting rid of the "Mass Effect Big Bang" series without affecting the collection.

Any attempt at exact-matching fails to match (don't know why) and concats the two

exclude_metadata_pre:
 series==Mass Effect Big Bang
 series=~Mass Effect Big Bang$

But fuzzy-matching removes both (and would affect other fics):

exclude_metadata_pre:
 series=~Mass Effect Big Bang
 series=~Mass Effect Big Bang&&seriesUrl==https://archiveofourown.org/series/xxxx

EDIT: Adding the [1] worked. In my main library, I also had to remove the seriesUrl in a separate line.
