Hey, Thanks for your message, I apologize it took so long to reply, i've been busy with a new job with crazy hours, and had no idea i had a message... I believe this is my latest picard script. I don't really have time to go through and explain all that it does. but it's amazing. I made it for me and how I wanted it. so it'll separate by genre, band, album, disc. (disc name). it'll add extra info to the song as available. (demo, etc) separate soundtracks, various, etc. if an album has more than half of the songs but not a complete album it'll move them to the [unfinished albums] folder. if it has less than 5 songs, they go to the misc folder. Also i didn't realize at the time i had to backup my Variables when it backed up my script. and that PC crashed. so you'll have to go setup the variables it needs. which i'd assume it'll give you errors if they aren't there. I haven't had time to go in and figure those out. as i'm at the moment using a much much simpler script to get my google music songs organized. after i'm done with that i'll go back to this one to finish organizing my main collection. but I wouldn't count on it being anytime soon.
Newest Working version: Separates Incomplete Albums and Misc songs & reads Album/Bonus from album folder

If you have already spent time on writing a custom naming scheme that fits your needs exactly, please share it here for the benefit of all. Help create a collection of all kinda naming schemes so new users can just copy & paste what other have already done!
They're on the simpler side, but it gets the job done for me
