-Naming conventions depend on your taste. It pays off to have a consistent naming convention throughout a project.

 * **Namespacing.** It's easy to spot all services starting with `user_` and it's a good idea to put them in a `users.py` module.

+A selector follows the same rules as a service.

+For example, in a module `<your_app>/selectors.py`, we can have the following:
 
 ```python
-def get_users(*, fetched_by: User) -> Iterable[User]:
+def users_list(*, fetched_by: User) -> Iterable[User]:
-    user_ids = get_visible_users_for(user=fetched_by)
+    user_ids = users_get_visible_for(user=fetched_by)
 
     query = Q(id__in=user_ids)
 
     return User.objects.filter(query)
 ```
 
-As you can see, `get_visible_users_for` is another selector.
