	In the event of venue-specific versions and/or drafts, a suffix appended to the title is appropriate. For example: <code>Rory Rammer-The Asteroid of Love</code> could become <code>Rory Rammer-The Asteroid of Love-Libertycon</code> if substantive changes for the benefit of that venue made it desirable to have a new version.		In the event of venue-specific versions and/or drafts, a suffix appended to the title is appropriate. For example: <code>Rory Rammer-The Asteroid of Love</code> could become <code>Rory Rammer-The Asteroid of Love-Libertycon</code> if substantive changes for the benefit of that venue made it desirable to have a new version.

			Serialized content that has episode numbers should conform to this naming format <code>[Series Name] [Season Number]-[Episode Number] [Episode Title]</code>. So, for example, <code>Nairobi Jack 01-01 Hunter's Rest</code>.

In order to ensure that all links remain valid, renaming the file in the event of a new version is not practical and therefore version numbers (long used in script filenames in the past) are no longer appropriate.
