Writing a data management plan: activity - name that file!

Naming files by chronology - if using a date, use the format year-Month-Day: YYYY-MM-DD or YYYY-MM or YYYY-YYYY. This will maintain chronological order of your files. Which format would you use? (click the filename to see the answer)

Descriptive file naming - Keep file names short and relevant - using sufficient characters to capture enough descriptive information.
