The convention we use is as follows (use the most descriptive name available; choose the first one, if not available, then the second one, etc.):
# Use the name that describes where the prototype came from or its purpose, especially if this is the name used in other places.
#: e.g. Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (Nick Arcade prototype), Sonic Rush (E3 2005 prototype)
# Use the full date, if available.
#: e.g. Ecco: The Tides of Time (Apr 13, 1994 prototype)
#*Do not use the time (Apr 13, 1994, not Apr 13, 1994 16:32:42).
#*If there are two prototypes of the same game on the same day, mark the second B, the third C etc.
#*: e.g. Metal Head (Dec 7, 1994 prototype B)
#*For cartridge/EPROM prototypes, often there is a label with a date, usually a month and a day. The year can often be guessed from the final release date and the state of completion of the prototype.
#*For disc prototypes, this is usually a mix of these:
#**The disc header date (if the disc contains a header).
#**The primary volume creation date at:
#*** 0x963d of the first track on raw 2352 (bin/cue) dumps.
#*** 0x832d of the first track on 2048 (iso) dumps.
#**The '''latest''' file modification date on the disc(s).
#*** Beware of early platforms like Sega CD and Sega Saturn, where CD-Rs were burned manually and often had faked volume creation and file modification dates. This is usually the case if all the files are the exact same date/time and/or have a suspiciously "round" date/time, like Jan 1, 1995 00:00:00.
#**Sometimes executables on the disc(s) contain build dates.
# Use the month and year, if the specific day is unavailable.
#: e.g. Ecco: The Tides of Time (Apr 1994 prototype)
# If the build date is unknown, or suspicious, use any extra information that can identify the prototype from others.
#: e.g. Aero the Acro-Bat (PAL prototype)
# If all else fails, just use Game Name prototype.
#: e.g. Lobo (prototype)
#* '''If you are not sure what to do''', use this convention and don't worry, we will modify the article accordingly.
