Thank you all so very much for this project! This will be very helpful to me :-)
Here are some including some that I have offered before. This time I included the evidence.

Orthodox Bishop Hilarion Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."
Arnold, I think, Belongs with Arnold Fruchtenbaum (Arnold G. Fruchtenbaum).
abondservant: I added Author:"Mohler, R. Albert, Jr."To "Reformed Baptist" which currently has no rules designed to pick up anyone. This should be obvious, he's president of one of the six SBC seminaries, and also pastor of an SBC church. President of the reformed sbc seminary no less :).Edit:Under Southern Baptist (which is the denomination, convention is simply where we set our direction)We should have thabiti anyabwile - who is pastor of FBC Grand Cayman, a member of the Southern Baptist denomination. He is also a Reformed (southern) Baptist. I know this because he preaches at my seminary all the time, because his church is a member of an association that is part of the Southern Baptist Denomination. Clicking the link above takes you to their missions page where they briefly mention their association, and provide a broken link to the assoc page. Googling the assoc turned up the detail that its a part of the IMB, which is of course our missions organization. Edit:The author Kevin DeYoung should be listed as Reformed Church in America, which is a denomination we don't have listed yet. In my library all he's written are a few journal articles... But he has more than a few books out there.Edit: Tullian Tchividjian seems to not be associated with Presbyterianism in the tags. He's pastor of Coral Ridge Presbyterian in Coral Gables Fl, and is also reformed....

These should all be there now. I haven't created a collection for Reformed Church in America, as there are only two authors so far in this denomination. The spreadsheet has the rule in it and includes all the denominations so far associated with authors.
I added Theology: Reformed to Mohler, which should mean he automatically appears in Reformed Baptist, as he was already Baptist. There should be no need to add individuals to the rules for Reformed baptist, but it does need the collections Full Library, Theology: Not Reformed and Theology: Not Baptist to work.

Thanks for the suggestions. These should all be there now. Paul Abbe should already have been down as Roman Catholic. Please let me know if he isn't showing up.
Robert A. Sprigg: Arnold, I think, Belongs with Arnold Fruchtenbaum (Arnold G. Fruchtenbaum).
Sorry, Robert, but I wasn't sure what you mean here.
Here's the latest spreadsheet, containing all of the changes above:

You are correct. There was an error in a download title.
I think we should have a category for Orientalist just as we do for philosopher.

How did you get your library to give you the above pie chart? I have pulled in all the collections that have come out of this blog, and want to see the breakdown in my library.
I don't know about others but I'd find it useful to have the Anglican/Church of England divided into categories such as Oxford Movement, Evangelical school etc. Others would know more about this but if we divide Catholics by religious order, this seems like a logical extension.
There are differences between US Baptists and UK baptists as well. Maybe that should also be a distinction. Seems a logical continuation. For that matter we have 329 (at least according to wikipedia - and I noticed it missed one in Haiti) separate baptist denominations in the world today, with a significant number of them being here in America.

The first part of Catholic orders and misspelling of Joseph in Dalton:
remainder of first cut of orders, spelling corrections and a non-latin catholic:
MJ. Smith:BarberMichaelRoman Catholic (Latin)Society of Jesus (Jesuit)
A married Jesuit with three kids?
MJ. Smith:Cornelius a Lapide
Should be à Lapide, Cornelius. I put it on the Metadata page, but for now it is what it is, I guess.
MJ. Smith:ErasmusDesideriusRoman Catholic (Latin)diocesan priest
Wikipedia says Canon Regular of St Augustine.
MJ. Smith:John Paul IIRoman Catholic (Latin)diocesan priest
He is supposed to have been a secular (Third Order) Discalced Carmelite.
MJ. Smith:Order of Friars Minor Capuchin (...) Order of Friars Minor (Franciscans)
I suspect the first would consider themselves just as Franciscan as the latter.
MJ. Smith:Schonborn
Please: Schönborn.
MJ. Smith:von BalthasarHans UrsRoman Catholic (Latin)diocesan priest
He may have died one, yes, but all his training and earlier life was Jesuit. I think I would keep him as such. I am more hesitant if Brennan Manning should really be allowed to keep his label. His break was a lot more radical.
Missing (most very obvious; perhaps they're on an earlier page, but I didn't see them):
Not yet shipped:
I haven't downloaded these lists, so I don't know what you're doing with them, but I would put all the Franciscans (Friars Minor, Capucins, Conventuals, Poor Clares, TOR) in one group, the whole Benedictine family (Benedictines, Cistercians, Trappists) in one group, and so on.

fgh: MJ. Smith:BarberMichaelRoman Catholic (Latin)Society of Jesus (Jesuit) A married Jesuit with three kids?
Working from the Excel file I had chosen "Gay Priest Ousted By Conservative Bishop (Michael Barber, SJ)" (Oakland California)
fgh:Should be à Lapide, Cornelius.
Hey, I just took what was on the Excel file - corrected obvious misspellings that wouldn't match but ...
fgh:I suspect the first would consider themselves just as Franciscan as the latter.
I'm for precision - Capuchins are a "subspecies" of "Franciscan"
Seriously, thanks for the corrections and for the additional work on the earlier Catholics - I hadn't tried to cover them yet.
I'd started on this because of the Roman Catholic vs. Catholic thing - I'm delighted you gave us another Eastern rite Catholic. I might "win this battle" yet.
MJ. Smith:Working from the Excel file I had chosen "Gay Priest Ousted By Conservative Bishop (Michael Barber, SJ)" (Oakland California)
Try this Michael Barber instead: https://www.blogger.com/profile/09245959720626825944.
MJ. Smith:Hey, I just took what was on the Excel file
Yes, and it just took what was in Logos metadata. Which seems unlikely to be fixed anytime soon...

Instead of Roman Catholic it should be something like Catholic (Latin Rite), Catholic (Melkite), etc. That way all Catholics can be sorted together on the spreadsheet. And then the same with the orders: Franciscan (OFM), Franciscan (OFM Cap), etc. With or without deciphering.
Someone may be interested in the following collection:

Sadly, there's no automatic way to generate a pie chart. As far as I'm aware, MJ just used the figures Logos gave her and entered them in an Excel spreadsheet, which creates pie charts using a wizard.
