Title standards
- These words:
A, An, And, As, By, From, For, In, Of, On, Or, The, To
in filenames and NAME tags should be lowercase.
Exception: filename beginning with such a word.
- "Don't Worry Be Happy" -> filename: Dont_Worry_Be_Happy.sap
"I'm" => "Im" in filename.
- pg: Omit articles where they are the first word of the title. This is actually practised, but not very consistently.
Example: The_Nutty_Professor.sap > Nutty_Professor.sap
Author standards
- pfusik: "Jan & David Spilka" -> "Jan Spilka & David Spilka" ?
Normally AUTHOR is shown to the user without further processing. One exception is Windows Explorer plugins which splits authors on " & ", so it will show two authors: "Jan" and "David Spilka".
- pfusik: avoid diminutives? Johnny -> John, Maciek Szczesniak -> Maciej Szcześniak, Slawek Sledz -> Sławomir Śledź ?
- pfusik: if real name is unknown, write "<?> (nickname)", e.g. AUTHOR "null1024" -> AUTHOR "<?> (null1024)"
Date standards
- pfusik: DD/MM/YYYY (preferred), DD-DD/MM/YYYY, MM/YYYY, MM-MM/YYYY, YYYY, YYYY-YYYY, possible to replace last digits with question marks
