How should we process these files?

Split into draft issues of pages each Files become "Unsorted N" placeholder issues you can re-date later. 0 = all files into one draft. Auto-sort by filename date (YYYY-MM-DD prefix) All filenames must start with YYYY-MM-DD. Otherwise the upload is rejected and the mode switches to draft. Group pages into issues by filename pattern Point at the parts of each filename that hold Year / Month / Day / Issue №. We fill the table below — edit any cell by hand. Files with no fields go to an Unsorted draft.
