Why does the documentation say to use naming conventions like SKEL, SK, PHYS for Skeleton, Skeletal Mesh, Physics Asset, but all the start content use other abbreviations like SK, SKM and PA instead?

  An attempt to make Unreal Engine 4 projects more consistent

Doesn’t matter what you use, as long as it’s consistant. Epic changed their recommendations for skeletal meshes and skeletons between UE 4 and 5, hence the inconsistency. Michael Allar’s UE style guide is a common, long standing one. Personally I use whatever Epic’s current standard is, or what my team is using. It’s also fine to not prefix stuff, but it helps for consistency and searchability. It’s honestly more important to name things well, with cascading specificity: assetprefix_assettype_assetsubtype00 e.g. SM_Rock_Desert01, SM_Foliage_Bush_Dry_Small01 etc.
