New Version: Version 2.5.0 - 6 November 2014
New Version: Version 2.5.0 - 6 November 2014 New Scrubbing Option: Rename Work Series Name to Web Series Name [Previously Verified Fiction Series Only]; Revised Instructions; and bug fixes.
This releases adds the next logical step that follows: Version 2.4.0 - 4 November 2014 New Miscellaneous Scrubbing Option: Verify Work Series Index Using Web Lookup.
This release adds one new table and two new views, so be sure to immediately run the "Upgrade Version" job on the menu after installing release 2.5.0 (or any other release of Q&S).
This new functionality is in addition to the Series Renamer / Consolidator, which will pick the "best" Work Series name of the many you might have in the Q&S Library, and rename the related others to that best one. This consolidates both Fiction and Nonfiction series.
However, the "best" Fiction Work Series name from above may not be identical to what the Web Series name is, so this new functionality in Version 2.5.0 (purely as an option) gives you the ability to rename your Fiction Work Series names to what the Web Series name is according to the web source, which is a fiction series database.
I have found via empirical evidence in my various libraries that running the "Series Renamer / Consolidator" prior to running the "Rename Work Series Name to Web Series Name" often yields better results in the latter because the former smooths out the rough edges around the original Work Series name prior to any renaming by anything. Those rough edges prevent a hit on the web source database.
The User Instructions have been updated to reflect both the new functionality and the proper execution sequence of everything in this add-on, including new validations regarding the execution of Author-Level Scrubbing in the sequence of events with the goal of maximizing the quality of the end-result (i.e., a clean ebook with the key metadata in its proper place and properly named).
As always, new users (only) must also download the .jar (really .zip) file from the original post and follow the user instructions as to what to do with it.
