What's the standard format for keys in the proceedings? #33

Time to agree on a standard format for keys in the proceedings :-)

In the 2020 proc, the keys have the format:

f"NIME{year}_{articleno}"

In other years, I think @alexarje has standardised to:

f"{first_author_last_name}{year}"

I don't think the key matters too much, because people often change it anyway, but should we stick a "nime" or something in there so that the default key has the conference?

e.g., it could be f"nime{year}_{first_author_last_name}"

or even f"nime{year}_{articleno}_{first_author_last_name}"

The final option there, although a bit convoluted, would make every key unique even if one author had two papers in a certain edition.

I don't have a strong opinion, but I agree that it makes sense to have a unique ID across the entire collection. So I think f"nime{year}{articleno}{first_author_last_name}" makes sense. Can you write a script to fix that?
