Battlestar Wiki talk:Think Tank/Image Naming Conventions

Thoughts

I agree that there should be some sort of convention. However, a few questions arise:

How do we go about changing the names of the ones already on the server? Since images can't be renamed like articles, a "rename" would include deleting and reuploading the image -- thus losing all history information (i.e. who uploaded it, changed it, etc.)
Do we even bother changing the names of images and content already uploaded?

As for conventions, here are some that come to mind:

Episode Name - Description.jpg
Episode Abbreviation - Description.jpg
- i.e. Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part I would have the abbreviation of KLGI.

In the case of images of one shot characters (for example), we could use the following naming convention:

The # denotes a two digit number; we should need no more than that.

Or, if we only have one image, then a simpler convention could be used:
