Using MacOS - any programs/automations/tools out there that can clean up date formats in file names?
Hi, I plan to add this to https://github.com/novoid/date2name which is a command line tool. I have not found out how to integrate command line tools on macOS to the context menu of the finder in a sane way like this tool provides for Windows File Explorer and probably GNU/Linux geeqie in future. It would be peachy if somebody has input on that. (I don't have access to macOS.)

Organizing photos in file hierarchy vs. 3rd party application
It sorts by file name and alphabet. My guess-filename and date2name generate date- and timestamps quite cleverly as long as your meta-data is not broken.

Folder and File Naming Convention – 10 Rules for Best Practice
Another thing I do see differently: I don't like version numbers since I prefer dates instead of numbers. There are different ways to use version numbers (one being proposed in the linked document). However, as the linked document also shows is that those versions are often accompanied with things like "draft" or "final" which introduces some kind of redundancy. I personally prefer date prefixes and filetags for "draft final submitted" for example. This is unambiguous so that version numbers do not add any value in my opinion.

File naming conventions for a startup
The same tagging method could be used for a general controlled vocabulary (CV) such as: bills, contracts, NDAs, and so forth. I'd also go with semantic tags like draft, submitted and final (or submitted) in combination with date-stamps instead of version numbers that are useless to humans most of the time.
