It also would be a huge challenge to rename all of the match footage that currently exists online, so if a 'standard' is attempted to be created, I feel that it should begin to be 'enforced' in 2016.

Luckily, however, no matter what a team names their footage, most makes its way to The Blue Alliance, were it is extremely easy to search for match videos.

As for what Team 1676 currently names all of our match footage, we go with "Year Competition - Match Type Match Number". For example, "2015 Waterloo Regional - Semifinal 3"
You guys do a great job naming your videos and actually your videos fit the "standard" I would like to see almost perfectly.

All of these videos are grouped and named perfectly. how bout like this?
These are also a great example of naming using the "standard"

Both of these examples include the essential information that some videos are missing. If I were to search on youtube FRC PNW (which I did) I could easily find the playlists.

I agree that getting every video changed would be a hassle and I don't want teams to change the names of the videos they have already put up, just use the "standard" for future reference.
And I think this would make people outside of FIRST much more capable of finding videos
