If so, how does the Datatracker > know to show them in the WG charter page? Is that done by hand? For WG drafts, the database has explicit data which identifies a draft as belonging to the WG. This is independent of the naming convention. For individual drafts, there is currently no explicit tagging in the database which tells us that a particular draft is 'related to' a certain WG.
