File Naming Protocol

It is really convenient for file management if documents that get repeatedly edited are named in a standard format, beginning with the date (e.g., 2024-04-05_lab_wiki).

This allows all versions of the document to be easily traceable, with a clear order to the edits (way better than "FINAL.docx" followed by "FINAL1.docx" and FINAL_REAL.docx! ;)

We also like to stick to snake case (all_lowercase_separated_by_underscores) in the lab, to keep things cohesive. This also helps when calling files in R.
