Re:  versioning legal documents from many different countries
Can I suggest 
Jurisdiction_type_ID_date_nickname

Such as
AU_Reg_12345_20161212_VotingProcedures.pdf
Then a database of correlates, where the same thing is under multiple jurisdictions. Manage the vocabularies for jurisdictions and types.
Allow extensions by letting people make up jurisdictions, types and IDs by prefixing them with X, a la IETF.

This allows sorting by ID better, and if people dont know the nickname they can wildcard it. I think putting the formal title in the filename is asking for trouble.

Hi,

We are building a system that takes legal documents from many nations and organizations on a particular subject matter in, and needs to be able to version them. A coworker has suggested that when an admin puts in a new document they should name it releasedate_correction_titleofdocument.pdf

however it has been my experience that titleofdocument is not going to cut it for automatically versioning these documents because of course not every country uses the same name between versions of a law. Therefore the admin would have to do work on determining what title of document is - does anyone have any experience on this and how usable would you think the releasedate_correction_titleofdocument.pdf would prove to be in real life?

Thanks,
Bryan Rasmussen
