File Naming Standards

Consistent file naming helps downstream processing and filtering.

---

General Rules

• Use underscores _ not spaces.
• Include year when available: AU_AI_Strategy_2024.pdf.
• Use PascalCase or underscores for multi-word titles.
• Avoid ambiguous suffixes like final2.

---

Examples

✅ Good:

• AU_Digital_Compact_2024.pdf
• Kenya_UPR_Report_2020.pdf
• Nigeria_CRC_Observation_2019.docx

❌ Bad:

• digital compact final.pdf
• Kenya report.doc
• doc1.pdf

Processing Notes

• Year extraction depends on \d{4} patterns.
• If no year in filename, pipeline scans document text.
• _raw field in metadata preserves original names.
