Naming Conventions
The Importance of Naming
It may seem like a simple things, but naming conventions will be a blessing when going through a new editor transition. Naming conventions will let you know who a submitter was, the title of the work, and what semester it was submitted.
This is all very important when trying to keep a living archive of all the past issues of Cardinal Sins.
