Naming things/ Making distinctions Heuristics
Use names that are meaningful to you
Make names as complete as necessary and as short as possible, to be able to identify content and minimize confusion
Use unique terms for unique concepts
Use names, abbreviations, file extensions, etc., in a consistent manner
When there are two different ways of expressing the same concept, choose one term and reference the other (e.g., through hyperlinks)
