After dealing with it manually for years, I finally decided to try and use the metadata replace function to help me out with ao3 characters with multiple names. I finally ran into a fandom with too many to want to do manually. I mean the kind of canonized tag thats "Adrien Agreste | Chat Noir"
I did figure out how to do it from the canonized tag, but is there a way I can use to also use each half on its own?
ie right now my line looks like
characters,ships,ships_CHARS=>(?i)Adrien Agreste \| Chat Noir$=>Adrien
is there a way to make it also catch just Adrien Agreste and just Chat Noir? Or do I need to just add more lines/do those ones manually?
(Also just a side note, but I do have to do freeformtags separately and drop the $, as someone who doesn't really understand anything I'm doing here I just find that potentially helpful to mention for anyone else trying to do this in the future.)
